| | Well, Elrod tagged me and I need a little break from work. I will stay 10 minutes late tonight to make up for doing this on the company clock :)
One book that changed your life: Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance, Robert Persig. I first read this book in 11th grade AP English and I think I have reread it nearly every summer since. This book pretty much changed my entire view on life, truth, God and countless other things. It's not that this book addresses all these issues, but it definitely has acted as a catalyst for some serious pondering in my life.
One book that you've read more than once: The Screwtape Letters, C.S. Lewis. This book was another revolutionary one for me. I have read it many times, and often use it when teaching classes or making presentations (to females only of course!) Also making this list: Utopia, Thomas More and All Quiet on the Wester Front, Erich Maria Remarque.
One book that you'd want on a desert island: Hmm...probably something that would make me think a lot...like a collection of the works of John Locke or David Hume or something along those lines. Then I would just read and ponder all day. Come to think of it, that doesn't sound so bad. Sign me up.
One book that made you laugh: America the Book, Jon Stewart. I laugh ridiculously hard when reading this.
One book that made you cry: I can't think of many books that have made me cry. It is my stone heart I guess :) I believe the first book that made me cry was The Bridge to Terabithia, Katherine Paterson. I read it when I was 10 or 11 or so.
One book you wish you had written: Blue Like Jazz, Donald Miller. I love the way Miller writes. It is like he is just sitting there talking to you.
One book that you wish had never been written: I am going to go with most of the cheesy romance books.
One book you're currently reading: Men are from Mars, Women are from Venus for the Office Place. This is a book our whole office is reading together. It seems a little "duh" so far, but maybe it will get better.
One book you've been meaning to read: The DaVinci Code. I am still trying to decide if I want to jump on the band wagon.
Tag five others: ha. I don't even know if there are five people that will read this. :)
