I've been waiting for someone to ask me to do this! Requested by thursday_last

1. Total number of books I own:
I changed this question a bit; there's no way to figure how many I've owned since I've sold so many over the years. I don't really own that many, to be honest. About 20? I only buy books when I've read them, loved them and will read them again. If I had bookshelves, I'd buy more. But I don't so they end up in a box, which kinda defeats the purpose of owning them.

2. Last book I bought:
Pride and Prejudice

3. Last book I read:
The River King by Alice Hoffman

4. 5 books that mean a lot to me:
  • Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire - my favorite in the series
  • Pride and Prejudice - the greatest heroine in literature
  • Rose by Martin Cruz Smith - he is a great storyteller
  • Memoirs of a Geisha by Arthur Golden - a book I had no desire to read which made me love it even more when I finished it.
  • Coming Home by Rosemunde Pilcher - set in 1930-40's England; she creates a world that I didn't want to leave.

5. Tag 5 people and have them fill this out in their LJs:
erm...sherry54321, gryffindor_phan, austen_rowling, silverbookworm, call_me_ps
