I'm going with Flannery O'Conner, Jane Austen, Leo Tolstoy, Edith Wharton and J.D. Salinger. Should be a fun and literary year!

I've been resisting them this year--mostly I just want to read through my stack of books without external guidance. But I'm sure I'll cave at some point.

It should be fun. Would you believe that all 4 of your choices after Oates have been on my must read someday list? I may just do them too. I look forward to your thoughts on what you read.

I would even choose the same authors. If you haven't read Crossing to Safety by Stegner, I'd highly recommend it. It's one of my all-time favorites! Tremain is an author I've been meaning to read... and you know how I feel about Erdrich ;-) Now this is an intriguing challenge! I would even choose the same authors.
