rachkmc did this at her blog, and asked me to do it too. Since it's her birthday, how can I say no? (She just called hers "Rachel's Favorite Romances," but she stuck to literature and literary adaptations. I'm going to follow her lead in that, or I could never narrow it down to ten. But I'm counting plays as literature. Also, I stole one or two of the pictures off her blog. Thanks, Rachel!)

Thanks to gioiello for giving me the Beyond Your Imagination Award!



I have to name eight stories or books that I would like to live in for two weeks, and then I have to pick eight other bloggers to receive the award.

This took a lot of thought. Turns out it's amazing how many of my favorite stories would put me in danger of the guillotine, ruthless criminals, or some other frightening fate.

(Also, I'm going to include movies and TV shows under the category of "stories," because it's my LJ and I can. ;-) )

1. List 8 stories or books that you would like to live in (for two weeks?)

1. My Fair Lady
2. Gaudy Night by Dorothy L. Sayers
3. At Home in Mitford by Jan Karon
4. Anne of Green Gables (the book, not the movie) by L. M. Montgomery
5. The Story Girl (the book, NOT the Disney Channel adaptation) by L. M. Montgomery
6. Beauty by Robin McKinley
7. Little Dorrit by Charles Dickens (but only if I could be one of the few who stay out of debtor's prison!)
8. White Collar (if I could be Elizabeth. She rarely seems to be in danger from criminals, and she gets to be married to Peter!)

2. List 8 other bloggers who deserve this award 3. Comment on their blog, and tell them they won an award
