This is how I feel about everything by Victoria Holt. I think I have at least one, if not more, copy of each of her books. There was something magical about being taken to India or Australia on a Victorian era adventure when you're 12.
thinking about books i loved as a kid...
i was (and am) a total horse girl and fueled my love with the SADDLE CLUB and THOROUGHBRED book series to the point that i STILL think about them
it's funny the impact books have on us and how long they linger in our lives
