Fun survey! 1) One Book that made you read it More Than Once: Helter Skelter, Vincent Bugliosi. I've read it at least ten times. Fascinating. 2) One book you would want on a desert island: Gone With the Wind, Margaret Mitchell. So long and probably my all-time favorite book. I think...

Scarlett O'Hara in Gone With the Wind. While her character is very frustrating, she's also endearing.

I still have around 50 pages left but I can safely say that The Plague, by Albert Camus is superb. The book had me so introspective.

I enjoyed it but not as much as The Great Gatsby.

And the rest.

If I had the money to buy new books, I wouldn't get rid of my old ones, but I can't afford to buy new books, so I swap them on paperbackswap.com I can't find the cord to my camera to upload new pictures, but here are my old ones:

The Probability book is my fiance's. He's into that stuff. I don't have the patience! Even though there's only a shelf and a half shown, I still see quite a few books I would borrow, although I'm not a Stephen King fan really. Your bookshelves are a lot more organized than mine too...

The picture isn't working for me. :(

The Perks of Being a Wallflower is on my to-read list. I've heard nothing but great reviews, so I'm looking forward to it. As for Nabakov, Lolita is one of my favorite books. I've also read Pnin, which was good but didn't compare to Lolita imo.

McCaig's book was ok--nothing great imo. I liked GWTW and Scarlett much better.

Gold Digger: The Outrageous Life and Times of Peggy Hopkins Joyce, by Constance Rosenblum.

I'm the same way--whatever I have lying around. At the moment, one of the books I'm reading has the receipt as a bookmark while the other has a bookmark about dog bites that I got from my vet.

I forgot about Goosebumps! I loved those as well.

Those Who Save Us, Jenna Blum An Inconvenient Book, Glenn Beck Atonement, Ian McEwan When the Dancing Stopped: The Real Story of the Morro Castle Diasater and its Deadly Wake, Brian Hicks Pnin, Vladimir Nabakov Michael Moore is a Big Fat Stupid White Man, Jason Clarke and Daniel...

Falling Man, by Don Delillo. I got about 2/3 of the way through I think. It was awful. A Tale of Two Cities, by Dickens. I didn't finish the last 90 pages. I felt awful about it but I just couldn't finish it. The Wind Done Gone, by Alice Randall. I love Gone with the Wind but this...

I was always a fan of The Baby-Sitters Club in elementary school. I also liked Roald Dahl. Judy Blume was another.

Lol--yes, I read it. :)

The Virgin Suicides. I realized it was a book after I saw the movie. Both the book and movie were superb!
