#FallIntoBooks - 5-Star Reads

JOIN THE FUN HERE

It would be easy to list a couple dozen classics that I have absolutely loved - but I decided to dwindle this list down to my top favorite classics as well as my top favorite 5-star books. I'm really looking forward to seeing other bloggers #5starreads for the #fallintobooks challenge!

My favorite 5-star book of all time is an easy-as-pie pick for me.  I fell head-over-heels in love with Scarlett and Rhett, Miss Mellie, Mammy, and the Tarleton boys.  My mom placed this book in my hands when I was around 14 and it has been my absolute hands-down favorite ever since.
