Books and stuff
Rules: In a text post, list ten books that have stayed with you in some way. Don’t take but a few minutes, and don’t think too hard — they don’t have to be the “right” or “great” works, just the ones that have touched you. Tag ten friends, including me, so I’ll see your list. Make sure you let your friends know you’ve tagged them!
Alright I got tagged by rotzloeffel
(sorry this took a bit :x)
1. Tuesdays With Morrie - Brilliant book that started off as a class assignment, but really touched me with its words of wisdom. Its a sad but true book that I think everyone should read at least once.
2. Slaughterhouse Five- Very interesting book by Kurt Vonnegut that made me think a bit about
3. The Hunger Games- 3rd book made me nearly cry and I enjoy the series a lot
4. Salem's Lot- Great work by Steven King; hooked me in for all his other works with this one.
5. Screwballs- If you even remotely think baseball is interesting this book will be absolutely hilarious to you- had me laugh so hard that I cried.
6. The Wall- A young adult novel I found in the library one day; maybe not the best book but It raises a few interesting questions about where we are going with our civilization
7. The Tomorrow Code- Good God, this book. An interesting combination of scifi and suspense that makes you think about our planet a second time.
8. A collection of Edgar Allen Poe short stories and poems- It's Poe damnit; I love all of his works.
9. The Great Gatsby- Bit dry at first but definitely a good read; one of the few books that gets better each time I read it.... it does particularly well at portraying the 1920s I think.
10. Tunnels- start of a really good series; it may be aimed at preteens but the book series deals with a lot of complex themes and has some interesting illustrations every once in a while to boot.
