One book that...

Tagged by Nichole ....


1) One book that changed your life... Aren't we changed by EVERY book we read?

2) One book that you've read more than once... MANDY by Julie [Andrews] Edwards



3) One book you'd want on a deserted island... Oh, gosh -- I have no idea. Something thick enough to last me awhile. Like the last Diana Gabaldon I've yet to read (A BREATH OF SNOW AND ASHES) because of how thick it is. I might have devoured the first book in three days, but know that this one would take much longer. I'm not as fast a reader as I once was....


4) One book that made you laugh... MIDNIGHT ICE by Cathie Linz -- the first book of hers I read, which was soon followed by her hilarious bumbling fairy godmothers. Now those were romantic comedies!

5) One book that made you cry... Oh, gosh -- there are so many that have hit me on that emotional level. For YA: MANDY by Julie [Andrews] Edwards -- I've read it about 20 times since I was a kid and it always gets to me. For fiction: OUTLANDER by Diana Gabaldon. Yes, I bawled about the entire last third of the book. For nonfiction: TUESDAYS WITH MORRIE by Mitch Albom.

6) One book you wish you'd written... Believe it or not, I can't think of any book I wish I had written, because if I had written something someone else had, it wouldn't be the same book. It would have a different voice, tone...different plotting altogether.

7) One book you wish had never been written... I was going to say this was a no-brainer, but it's a toss up between anything by James Joyce and MOBY DICK.

8) One book you're currently reading... Just finished Mitch Albom's FOR ONE MORE DAY and haven't yet delved into the TBR for a new one. Probably a romantic suspense....
