One Book Meme

Passed on by Eva at A Striped Armchair ...

One book you’re currently reading: The Conqueror by Georgette Heyer
One book that changed your life: The Fountainhead by Ayn Rand
One book you’d want on a deserted island: The Secret Garden by Frances Hodgson Burnett
One book you’ve read more than once: David Copperfield by Charles Dickens
One book you’ve never been able to finish: The Mill on the Floss by George Eliot
One book that made you laugh: Dirk Gently's Holistic Detective Agency by Douglas Adams
One book that made you cry: Woman in the Mists by Farley Mowat
One book you keep rereading: The Ground Beneath Her Feet by Salman Rushdie
One book you’ve been meaning to read: Don Quixote by Miguel de Cervantes
One book you believe everyone should read: The Odyssey by Homer

Finally,
Grab the nearest book. Open it to page 56. Find the fifth sentence:

"This was a man to die for, even as he had dreamed in those far-off days at Harcourt." From The Conqueror by Georgette Heyer (a historical novel about William the Conqueror).

Comment here if you decide to do this meme ... I would love to read your responses!

Suddenly considering some re-reads,
K
