Also one of my absolute favorite movies ever!

This read-along runs May-August 2015
In perusing the web I have learned that Corinne of the pursuit of happiness is unable to continue blogging for now, but the good news is that Brona of Brona's Books is standing in for her until her return--there you will find links to others' GWTW reviews!

I will try not to hold that against her!)
TJ of My Book Strings
Maria of The Spare Room

While it may seem that I am taking FOREVER to finish this,
