Kessel L. Nelson nominated me for this challenge: Name 10 books that have stayed with you for one reason or another, over the years. Because I dont like rules, here are 15: 1. The Lorax by Dr. Seuss 2. The BFG by Roald Dahl 3. Good Omens by Neil Gaiman and Terry Pratchett 4. How to Be Black by Baratunde Thurston 5. Oh, the Places You’ll Go by Dr. Seuss 6. Neverwhere by Neil Gaiman 7. Lucy by Jamaica Kincaid 8. The Stranger by Albert Camus 9. Now One Foot, Now the Other by Tomie dePaola 10. Angel Unaware by Dale Evans Rogers 11. Harry Potter by J.K. Rowling 12. Breakfast of Champions by Kurt Vonnegut 13. A Child Called It by Dave Pelzer 14. One Child by Torey L. Hayden 15. 1984 by George Orwell I did this some time last year (and it took me forever to dig through and find the post so I wouldnt duplicate any answers). I didnt like rules back then either, so here are the 17 I listed then: 1. Where the Red Fern Grows by Wilson Rawls 2. A Wrinkle in Time by Madeleine LEngle 3. The Outsiders by S.E. Hinton 4. A Clockwork Orange by Anthony Burgess 5. Shes Come Undone by Wally Lamb 6. The Graveyard Book by Neil Gaiman 7. The House on Mango Street by Sandra Cisneros 8. A Dirty Job by Christopher Moore 9. The Merry Gentry series by Laurell K Hamilton 10. Blasphemy by Douglas Preston 11. Angelas Ashes by Frank McCourt 12. Tuesdays with Moorie by Mitch Albom 13. Timequake by Kurt Vonnegut 14. Flowers for Algernon by Daniel Keyes 15. The Incarnations of Immortality series by Piers Anthony 16. Memoirs of a Geisha by Arthur Golden 17. The Red Tent by Anita Diamant As for who to nominate next . . . a little tough because I tagged everyone last year (including Kessel . . . and I dont think he did it when *I* nominated him, so we may have to fight now :P ). Anyway, Im just going to leave this open to whoever wants to respond or repost because book recommendations are awesome!
