On the subject of books...
I was thinking about this last night... What is the most important book you've ever read? I don't mean the one that people tell you is important, but the one that really influenced you or changed the way you thought about something. Maybe I should rephrase it as the book that blew you away?
I'm not posting mine yet... Mostly because I'm having a hard time picking just one. Feel free to post a top 10 or any other sort of list, if you have that many.
PS- I just spent $140 on books at Barnes & Noble. I have a book problem. Especially when B&N gift cards are burning a hole in my wallet!
Books currently waiting to be read or reread:
In Cold Blood - Truman Capote
A Happy Death - Albert Camus (probably rereading The Stranger after this since this was Camus' first book and has similarities to it)
The Plague - Albert Camus
The Fall - Albert Camus
Exile and the Kingdom - Albert Camus
Selected Essays - Albert Camus
On the Road - Jack Kerouac
The Bell Jar - Sylvia Plath
Waiting to also get my hands on a copy of The Messiah by Gore Vidal! That will probably jump the list as soon as I have it. Lots of others on my list waiting to be read, but they're far away on my nightstand.
