Gunluvver, that is so funny because I HAVE A LIST! I'll have to post it for you sometime to see if we have any of the same books! I wondered if anyone else kept one. I lost my last one, so had to make another. I added to it, last night from here. Oh, and I cannot wait to see Angelina in that role, talk about perfect casting.
World Citizen, I like non fiction also. I like memoirs. Thanks for the info, and I wish you would list your bad books, it could only help us.
Confederacy of Dunces - John Kennedy Toole
Operation Shylock - Philip Roth
Satanic Verses - Salman Rushdie
The Awakening - Kate Chopin
Beloved - Toni Morrisson

Watership Down~Richard Adams
Gone With the Wind~Margaret Mitchell
Outlander series~Diana Gabaldon
Lord of the Rings~J.R.R. Tolkien
Sacajawea~Anna Lee Waldo

#1 The Time Travelers Wife - Ruined fiction for me. It was just so good, nothing will ever come close.
2. The Secret History - Just amazing, left such an impression that stayed with me.
3. Catcher in the Rye - What can I say.
4. A Tree Grows in Brooklyn - Huge impact on my life. Have a 1st edition hardback. Reflect upon it constantly.
5. Where the Red Fern Grows - Dan and Little Ann. This book chokes me up. I love dogs. The sacrifices that they make and their desire to make us (humans) happy will never cease to amaze me.
Okay I am cheating but Classic runner up: Anna Karenina.
1. Chronicles of a Death Foretold - Gabriel Garcia Marquez
2. To Kill a Mockingbird - Harper Lee
3. Five People You Meet in Heaven - Mitch Albom
4. Interview with a Vampire- Anne Rice
5. The Catcher in the Rye - JD Salinger
6. The Kite Runner - Khaled Hosseini
7. Sula - Toni Morrison
8. Giovanni's Room - James Baldwin
9. Quicksand - Nella Larsen
10. Their Eyes Were Watching God - Zora Neal Hurton
