Tagged!

Jill has tagged me for the book meme game! I'm both thrilled and worried. Thrilled that Jill would include me and worried that I have no other bloggers to tag.

I'm also amused to no end by the word "tag." Am I it? Do I get to scrawl graffiti on the subway that is my blog?

Anway, here are my answers so far:

1. How many books do you own?
I have absolutely no idea. All of our bedrooms are full of books and we have more in boxes in the attic. The thing is, no matter how bad a book is, none of us can stand to throw it away.

2. Last book I bought:
A Bend in the River and A Good Year
(I bought them together.)

3. Last book I read
A Good Year (I'm in the midst of reading A Bend in the River)

4. Five books that mean a lot to me (without exceptions or apologies):

All of the Little House books
A Course in General Linguistics
The New Basics
The Barrytown Trilogy
The Master and Margarita

OK, the truth is that I often forget books the minute I finish them. These are some of the books that I still vaguely remember. I'm sure I'll change my mind about this list.

5. Tag five more
ACK!

And if you're not Gavin or Jill, you are reading this, and you have a blog, consider yourself TAGGED! You're it! Get out the spray paint!
