Book Meme

Last book I paid money for

I've been going to the library so much lately... I believe the book was Ya-Yas in Bloom.

Last book I read

I'm reading Where The Heart Is by Billie Letts. Its an amazing novel... a little slow in some parts, but amazing nonetheless.

Five books that mean a lot to me


1. Clan of the Cave Bear. It's an amazing insight as to what our past as humans was like, and it has really neat themes. Plus, it got me to respect Neanderthals Clan.

2. Divine Secrets of the Ya Ya Sisterhood. Rebecca Wells makes you *feel* her writing, and anyone whose read her books knows exactly what I mean. She's all about soul.

3. Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire, if only for one quote: "What would come would come, and they would have to face it when it did." Man, did that get me through the harder times in life.

4. To Kill A Mockingbird. When I first read it, I have to admit I was taken aback by the racism and other forms of prejiduce. But upon giving it a second chance, I realized it's all supposed to be filled with that - the reader is to be appalled, and to admire people like Atticus Finch who know not to fall for ignorance.

5. Their Eyes Were Watching God. Wow. It's amazing - I really wish Hurston had recieved more credit for it. It didn't really get recognized until decades later.
