I re-watched A Walk To Remember about a week ago, just so you know A Walk To Remember is my all time favourite movie. I haven't actually read the
book (by Nicholas Sparks) yet, but I bawl my eyes out each time a watch it. I cry thorough books, I cry through movies, I know I get way too emotional really quickly but hey what can i do?
Anyway, in the movie Jamie mentions "reading all the books on Mr. Rothman's list of 100 contemporary American Authors". Naturally, me being me, I 'Googled' it straight away and realised the list didn't actually exists. But, that did in a way inspire me to make my own list of 100 (i love lists).
I didn't Include The Harry Potter Series, The Twilight Series or The Hunger Games Series because...well, i didn't think there was much point in it, i've read all three series' and i bet most of you have too (if you haven't yet read them, i'd recommend you do read at least Harry Potter and The Hunger Games)
