A meme for all seasons

To appease the wench over at Cybervassals, I’m actually following a meme :) Don’t tell her…

1. You’re stuck inside Fahrenheit 451– which book do you want to be?

Well, it certainly wouldn’t be Fahrenheit 451. I hated the book. Any work of fiction that gives Grade 10 English teachers an excuse to torture students isn’t really work the brain storage space. :)

If I had to have a book floating around in my head, it’d probably be something like Treasure Island or A Christmas Carol.

2. Have you ever had a crush on a fictional character?

Yes.

3. The last book you bought is:

The Lions of Al-Rassan // Guy Gavriel Kay

4. The last book you read:

Neverwhere // Neil Gaiman

5. What are you currently reading?

Harry Potter and the Philosopher’s Stone // J. K. Rowling

6. Five books you would take to a deserted island:

Apart from the requisite unbound reference material on how to get off the deserted island, and about the sustaining values of plants and animals you’d find on a deserted island, I’d have to choose:

The Name of the Rose // Umberto Eco
The Prophet // Khalil Gibran
The Lord of the Rings // J. R. R. Tolkien
Papillon // Henri Charriere
The Mahabarata
