Thanks for the Memories

[image error]So been thinking about e-readers lately — As in hoping to get one for Christmas.  It's past time for me to jump into the new world.   And that has of course made me think about books.  A couple years ago Sherri sent me a Facebook note (still haven't worked out exactly what those do) asking me to list my top fifteen books just off the top of my head.  Here is my list.


1. A Wrinkle in Time – Madeline L'Engle – A novel about the ties of love

2. The Lion the Witch and the Wardrobe – CS Lewis – Lucy, wardrobe, Mr. Tumnus – 'nuf said

3. My Brother Michael – Mary Stewart – love love love this book

4. The Moon-Spinners – Mary Stewart – my second fav

5. To Kill A Mockingbird – Harper Lee – in my mind the perfect novel

6. Alice in Wonderland/Looking Glass – Lewis Carroll – it's so much fun[image error]

7. Go Ask Alice – Anonymous – an anthem of the times (sadly)

8. Lord of the Rings trilogy – JR Tolkien – read it summer of my junior year

9. The Bourne Identity – Robert Ludlum – love the whole series

10. The Andromeda Strain – Michael Crichton – brilliant writing

11. The Winds of War – Herman Wouk – this and the sequel War and Remembrances

13. The Shivering Sands – Victoria Holt – one of my first gothics

14. The Guns of Navarone – Alistair McClean – best action book ever — FABULOUS

15. Two From Galilee – Marjorie Holmes – this effected me greatly at the time – 8th grade


How about you?  What's on your list?  Any of mine that would have made yours?
