Tag! I’m it. Without revealing too much about myself, here’s a glimpse into the bookwork hidden inside of me.
1) Total number of books I’ve owned.
Gods this number is in the tens of thousands. I've been an avid reader since I was a wee kid, my degree's in English (one of them), Denise's degree's in English (one of them)... we currently have eight overloaded bookshelves and about forty unpacked boxes of books. And then, of course, I've bought and sold a huge number of them.
2) The last book I bought.
The Book of More Flesh, an anthology.
3) The Last Book I read.
Heh. The Zombie Survival Guide: Complete Protection from the Living Dead by Max Brooks.
4) 5 books that mean something to me.
First Book - the Giving Tree
First Read - The Lion the Witch and the Wardrobe
Most Times Read - The Drawing of the Three
Largest Impact - Johnny Got His Gun
Biggest F-ing Page-turner (most recent memory) - Song of Susannah
5) Tag 5 people and request they fill this out on their journals
Odalisquek, Rod, Drew, Adj, Aimee & Angie

1) Total number of books I’ve owned:
I would have no idea . . . many, many books. I can remember when I was single again, taking care of Phaedra, I was so poor I had to sell almost all of my books. I walked into the second hand bookstore, crying my eyes out.
2) The last book I bought.
Stumbling on Happiness
3) The Last Book I read.
The Glass Castle - a great memoir
4) 5 books that mean something to me.
First Book - Sylvester and the Magic Pebbles, such tragedy for a child's picture book
First Read - Anne of Green Gables
Most Times Read - The Death of Artemio Cruz
Largest Impact - The Death of Artemio Cruz; that book changed my heart and mind forever.
