Everything counts.
I took the question to mean, If you could be the last book in the world which book would you be? and answered accordingly.
Personally, I wouldn’t like to be a book in Fahrenheit 451. By and large, they tend not to meet good ends.
Well said, which is why I took the question to mean what I thought it meant. 😉
Allyn said : “I took the question to mean, If you could be the last book in the world which book would you be? ”
In that case I would be any book by Bill O’reilly, Ann Coulter or Sean Hannity.
On a more specific note I would say MEG by Steve Alten.
Erm. As to #1, how about being “The Iceman Cometh”? Or “A River Runs Through It”?
Anything to put out the flames!
Oh – what I’m reading: Blink by Malcolm Gladwell.
Last book I bought: Marque and Reprisal by Elizabeth Moon
The last book I read: DaVinci Code by Dan Brown
Desert Island books:
LOTR (only counts as three if bound separately! *laughing*)
The Eight by Katherine Neville
The Scarlet Pimpernel by “Baroness Orczy”
The Count of Monté Cristo by Alexandre Dumas
Surviving Well Off The Land (from MEN about 30 years ago, compiled)
#2, #7: *shrug* Silly.
