I was hoping to have time to type something meaningful (so not true), but it seems blogger has some sort of outage scheduled (so I just have to make it brief :). I really wish I could write something meaningful, but 1) W has some sort of cold that is making him run a low-grade fever 2) today I ran around doing errands while my mom watched the boys, 3) I took H to soccer this afternoon and 4) I am going to go pick up a pizza for me and H to share. However, Christy posted her top eight books, so I can at least do that (although, really, there are so many narrowing it to eight will be tough).
1) Persuasion by Jane Austen
2) Life of Pi by Yann Martel
3) A Moveable Feast by Ernest Hemingway
4) Glimpses of the Moon by Edith Wharton
5) Sullivan's Island by Dorothea Benton Frank
6) The Children of Men by P.D. James
7) Bella Tuscany by Frances Mayes
8) I Capture the Castle by Dodie Smith
I tried to mix in some classic favorites with a few modern ones. Better get to ordering that pizza ;)

I would argue that remembering your favorite books IS meaningful. :-)
Loved I Capture the Castle. Loved it.
HATED Children of Men - so funny because I have LOVED all her other books - just not that one.
Haven't read 2,3,4 or 5. Really liked 7.
Great list!
I have several of these but haven't had the time to read them yet!
Thanks for the reminder.
:)
