The Bible
LOTR
None
The Stand
Dune
The Hunt for Red October
Ender's Game
Harry Potter
Red Storm Rising
Atlas Shrugged

Happy: Three of my favorites are on the list.

Sad: The Bible and Ayn Rand?

Ug.

Gah. It almost makes me ashamed to be a subscriber. The Bible, two Tom Clancy books, Ayn Rand's most whiny novel, and "None" in the top ten? *sad sigh*

I liked RSR. [Smile] Would've liked to see The City and the Stars in there, though. Or maybe Warday, or The Postman, but I think that might have been hoping for too much.

No H2G2? IT Pro Mag is a geek magazine, right?

It's always nice to discover that my favorite books are in the same list with some of the cheapest novels known to the literate world.
