His Lordship of Strathmore has popped me in a cradle, punched a yellow GG1 tag in my ear and sent me on my way. How could I refuse a vice regal Book meme request and pleasure of being in fine tagee company.
1) Total number of books I've owned:
I didn't say I could count. Large pic of most of the survivors is here .
2) The last book I bought:
Russian Criminal Tattoo Encyclopedia
3) The last book I read:
Actually finished?
One for the Money Janet Evanovich
When I'm at the bookstore I usually buy two books. One I think I should read and one I read.
4) 5 books that mean a lot to me:
The Reader's Digest Book of Strange Stories and Amazing Facts
– an early source of wonder.
The Washington Connection and Third World Fascism Noam Chomsky, Edward S. Herman
– oh good morning Princess.
The Collected Works of Oscar Wilde
– my best and worst qualities.
Gravity's Rainbow Thomas Pynchon
-geeky, pacey, sharp, sexy
Love and Rockets – Jaime Hernandez
-bilingual and biontological
5) Tag 5 people and have them fill this out on their blogs:
I'll be doomed but I'll have to park this bus here, having already memed people this week. But if you mailed me and told me that I invited you, I'd probably believe it.
Ah apparently
– Dispensing Happiness up!
– apple of my eye up!
-Shina (in comments for now)
– The Daily Magnet (in comments)
– Lex Culinaria up!
This is of course cookbook free. The meme of which is ticking along very nicely.
