My favorites--memes and books

[birdgirl78]

This meme comes to you courtesy of the letters A and O and the number 3.  And by support from viewers like you.
Um, actually, I took it from book_memes

Choose ten random books from your shelves and tell us in a post what they say about you.

I took 2 books each from my 4 larger shelves and 1 each from my 2 smaller shelves.  I did it *mostly* at random...I did

Thrones, Dominations was both good and bad. You could definitely tell where Sayers broke off and Walsh picked up, but basically it's Harriet and Peter fanfiction, which is awesome. The first part and the last parts are my favourites, plus there's a mention of Gertie Lawrence and Noel Coward, which made me squee ;)

I would definitely do this meme if most of my books here at school weren't textbooks.

Thanks so much for the warning and info. I've got 4 books that need to be returned to the library next week, so i'll start on it after that. :)

It's a shame all your other books are at home *pouts* I'd love to see what you come up with XD

I think I might as well do this meme, I'll just use the library books I have out at the moment, too, to supplement my meagre bookshelf here at school.

I'm glad someone is doing this meme with covers - *admires the pretty*

I purged stuff from my youth, too, I think it's a necessary phase of growing up - the books mostly survived, thank gods, but I got rid of piles of old letters from pen-pals that I'd fallen out of touch with, which gives me such a woe now.

I think I need a copy of How to Read a Book. *adds it to the mutant-son-of-Godzilla wishlist*

why thank you!
I was very sad that I could not find a copy of the cover for Holy Delight but I suppose that's to be expected of an academic press book. *dramatic sigh*

*cuddles you over loss of penpal letters*
I know whatcha mean.

And How to Read a Book is a definite recommend. It could also be title The Proper Way to Read for Arts Exams.

Dude, I WISH I held expertise like you do! You're adding to my constantly-growing list of books to read...:-P

I'm merely a dilettante. I know a little of everything, but have not drunk deeply of anything.

Oof, can you tell I've been trying my academic writing today? I actually have a wee bit of a start *crosses fingers that I can keep it going*

I luff you
