Book-Buying Frenzy!

I've spent the past 24 hours in a book-buying frenzy as a result of a Barnes and Noble sale on classics. Here is a list of my most recent additions:

-The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde (and other stories)
-The Complete Sherlock Holmes, Volume I
-The Complete Sherlock Holmes, Volume II
-Middlemarch
-Treasure Island
-The Secret Garden
-Film: Gone With The Wind
-Film: Casablanca

Yup, lots of classics. I realize that these purchases will only cover 3 books on the list (Middlemarch, Sherlock Holmes, and The Secret Garden), but the others will cover the books to be added to the list when the first is done, along with Don Quixote and others that didn't make the top 100. Unfortunately, I am only in possession of the first 3 books on the list as the rest are coming from an online order. Now we can play a game of how long is it going to take me to read these books since I still have ones from before (LOTR, War and Peace) that I haven't read yet. Oh well, I'll get around to them all eventually. This project is going to succeed if it's the last thing I do!

(It's also going to last for several years) haha
