Total number of books owned:
Probably around a thousand… maybe two.
Last book bought:
Actually, the last book that I got was free! I won Rogue Angel: The Spider Stone on Gena Showalter’s blog.
Last book read:
The Artifact, by Kevin J. Anderson.
Five books that mean a lot to you:
1. The Bible. Of course, it’s more than just a book.
2. The Chronicles of Narnia, by C.S. Lewis. This series has been a favorite since I was a child. And not only are they wonderful stories, but powerful Christian allegories as well.
3. When God Whispers Your Name, by Max Lucado. I read this in high school, and it had a powerful impact on me and my walk.
4. The Count of Monte Cristo, by Alexandre Dumas. My favorite book of all time. My favorite passage from the book:
5. The Nancy Drew series, by Carolyn Keene. I have always loved to read. But when I started reading these in grade school, it took my passion to another level. They had a strong female role model, fun mysteries, and there was always a happy ending.
Heroes Update:
Make sure you check out this week’s online graphic novel for more on Niki’s husband D.L., who can obviously walk through walls (and handcuffs). It looks like Niki’s “Hyde” persona might be responsible for the killings and framing of her husband.
another great one! Really enjoyed it. Loved the effects when Nathan flew!
I’m not sure how many books I own but I would say it is in the low hundreds. I re-read books so often that only in the last few years have I really begun to ‘collect’ and keep books other than favorites.
I love reading these memes. I was also a Nancy Drew fan 🙂
I’ve always wanted to pick up The Count of Monte Cristo. My classics are always behind where I want them to be. Your list was interesting, and similar to many of what my answers would be. Hope that’s a good thing!
RE Heroes: Good info! Yes DL apparently has “phasing” abillities- that’s how he got out of jail. Ah see Nikki’s Hyde character doing the slayings makes sense. Now I wonder if the kid’s genious is “supernatural” too!
