I Can Read!

September 2, 2006

I am not a meme person, but a friend who has been so supportive tagged me, so I am not one to say no to friends who are good to me. So, for my gal over at ArmyWifeToddlerMom, here is the meme she asked me to do a long time ago that I did and forgot in my drafts.

1) A book that changed my life:

Bird by Bird by Anne Lamott; Are you There God? It’s Me, Margaret by Judy Blume (Come on! You read it too, girls!)

2) A book I’ve read more than once:

There is no way I could list that here. I reread almost every book that I enjoy. Really. Getting rid of a book is like severing an arm. I know I will miss it eventually.

3) A book I’d take to a desert island:

How to Escape from a Deserted Island. HA! Probably something really long like The Illiad or War and Peace. That way I have a long time to read it and then can reread it. And if I get bored, I can read it to put me to sleep. Or burn it for warmth.

4) A book that made me laugh:

Everything Janet Evanovich. Hysterical writer. Also, David Sedaris. Love him!

5) A book that made me cry:

The Notebook, Nicholas Sparks; A lot of books make me cry. I am a sap.

6) A book I wish had been written:

I’m Okay, You’re a Bitch (You know. A Self-Help and How-To combined. Yes, based on, I’m Okay, You’re Okay, but really. If you have issues, it’s usually because they are SO NOT okay!)

7) A book that should never have been written:

A Million Little Pieces, James Frey. Still hate that little bastard for what he did to the publishing industry.

A book I’m currently reading:
