Instructions: Don’t take too long to think about it. Fifteen books you’ve read that will always stick with you. First fifteen you can recall in no more than 15 minutes.

1. Kushiel's Justice
2. Kushiel's Scion
3. The Wheel of Time
4. The Good Earth
5. Designing with Web Standards second edition (yes, the one and only tech book I've ACTUALLY read through)
6. Catch-22
7. Dragon Sleeping
8. Dragon Waking
9. Dragon Burning
10. Day of the Dragon
11. Ethan Frome (lol)
12. Night
13. Lords and Ladies
14. The Diamond Throne
15. Redwall

(I think I could go on for a long, long time XD That list took me about 2 minutes. I have read SO MANY BOOKS and tons of them are in series... I didn't even touch most of The Wheel of Time series, any Redwall books but 1, only the first of the 6 Diamond Throne-related books, the first 3 Kushiel books, none of the Sookie Stackhouse books or Confessions of a Shopaholic, toooons of Mercedes Lackey books I have read... etc... I read like a crazy lady when I'm really into it!)

I really need to make a new post in my lj and keep it updated with a list of book recommendations from other people and for other people , and then my thoughts on the books I was recommended.

YESSSS I was trying, in vain, to remember the names of The Hatchet and My Side of the Mountain yesterday - you rock! Devil's Arithmetic, Diary of Anne Frank, and The Giver would also be on my list if I'd remembered them

Is it sad that most of my list are y/a books?

[amerynn.livejournal.com]

I don't think so because a lot of them were read during very impressionable and formative times for us

hehehe at #11 ;D

I've only heard of a few of these... I was addicted to the Redwall series for a while as a kid

Oh my God, The Giver was so amazing. It was my favorite school book.. I'm so glad they had us read it in like 7th grade. I really want to read it again since it's been like 10 years.

Did you know there are 2 follow up books to The Giver? They're nowhere near as good, but are definitely worth a read

Love Catch-22! Actually, the only one from your list that I've read. But even without reading the books I can say the dragon should have stayed in bed.
