Better late than never, I suppose.
I am very surprised that nobody waxes!

1) Total number of books owned: More than I can count, or remember

2) The last book I bought: Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince

3) The last book I read: A nerdy book actually, about designing without tables with CSS

4) 5 books that mean a lot to me:
  • Little Women by Louisa May Alcott. The copy I have is the illustrated hardcover version. My mum's sister gave it to me when they came to visit from the US when I was 12, I thought it was a very delicate present coming from someone who did not know me very well. I'd never read it before - and I loved it.
  • The Magic Faraway Tree Series by Enid Blyton. They're actually three books. I spent most of my childhood inside them. When I want to make the world go away, I read them.
  • Conversations with God by Neale Donald Walsch. I don't know. It makes me feel less alone.
  • Under the Mountain by Maurice Gee. My sixth grade teacher read this to us, and it made the biggest impression on me, it freaked me out and I wasn't living in New Zealand back then. I think about it a lot.
  • Cat's Eye by Margaret Atwood. Inspirational in so many ways.
5) Tag 5 people and have them fill this out on their LJs:
