kyrieane tagged me when she did this, and who am I to argue? I love my books, though they've been woefully neglected since I discovered slash. *g*



1. Total number of books I've owned: I'd have to guess at about the 10,000 mark, and about 7,000 of them are still with me.

2. Last book I bought: Potter's Cyclopedia of Botanical Drugs and Preparations, 5th Edition, 1941

3. Last book I read: Watchers, by Dean Koontz

4. 5 books that mean a lot to me:
The Stand by Stephen King - I try to read the unabridged editin at least once a year
Ages in Chaos by Emmanual Velikovsky - history revised
The Oxford Paperback Dictionary and Thesaurus - my bible!
The Lion, The Witch and The Wardrobe by C S Lewis - this book (series) gave my imagination wings
Men In Love by Nancy Flowers - insight into the sexual fantasies of men, in their own words!

5. Tag 5 people and have them fill this out in their LJs:
literati, coffee_quill, crazydiamondsue, ponders_life and tabaqui

LOL! Who needs a digital encyclopedia when there's always google? *g*
Even if I do end up getting a digital dictionary/thesaurus, I think the 'reach for the book' action is so ingrained I'll only remember the digital version when I've got fingers stuck in various pages and I'm flipping madly back and forth. :P
