Annabookbel's Desert Island Library

If I were to be stranded on a desert island, these are the (current) 100 books I'd like to wash up in a large waterproof trunk. They're rather an eclectic mix, from children's books to SF, from Westerns to contemporary novels. Mostly read since I started my blog 'AnnaBookBel' in 2008. Please do come and visit https://annabookbel.net
