First Love Never Dies...especially if he's fiction.

This sweet cardigan reminded me of an lovely English spring and how I first fell in love with a fictional man, Mr. Darcy. Oh Jane Austen, How I love thee! I read Pride and Prejudice at least once a year, it is my Top 5 Favorite Books of All Time. Mr. Darcy was my ideal, but I quickly discovered that high school boys lack a sense of honor and moral obligation. That's okay, I found my Darcy later in life.
Currently, I am taking a Young Adult Literature course and I need to think of some YA novels to pair with the classic book assigned to me, Wuthering Heights... another fav. So if anyone has any suggestions I would love to hear them.
