    Great list! Elizabeth Bennet is pretty popular on this week's lists (she made it on my list too, lol)

    Here's my TTT for this week =)

    Btw, I see that you're reading Barnes' The Sense of an Ending--I hope you're enjoying it! I read it last month and I absolutely loved it <333

    Yay for Snow White! I would have never thought to add her. Great list.

    We've got a few in common! And I nearly picked Elizabeth Bennet too, if that counts for something. :-)
