I'm organizing my book collection and was just wondering what some of your favorite books are. Here's a few of mine:
White Fang, by Jack London
Watership Down, by Richard Adams
The Eyes of The Dragon, by Stephen King
Salems Lot, by Stephen King
The Mummy, by Anne Rice
All James Herriot books
The Fionavar Tapestry books (I,II,&III), by Guy Gavriel Kay: The Summer Tree, The Wandering Fire, & The Darkest Road
The Hobbit, JRR Tolkien

I could probably list many more, but these are at the top of my list. :bookdiva:

Cant tell you my favorite book unless Magazines count. I havent read a book since high school 25 years ago. I hate reading. I allways wait for the movie to come out....

But the book is always better! If I read the book before the movie I almost always hate the movie....my best friend is the same way though, hates reading......

That's why I dont read...lol I dont want to ruin the movie!

LMAO!! Hey, one of my dogs name's Sydney as well....

Sydney just became part of the family a week ago. She adopted us. Obviously she was just dumped in our little town by some one because no one knows who she belongs to. We put the word out that we had found a dog and no one has replied so I guess this animal loving person will allow it to live here. Other than being very thin she is in pretty good health. She is very easy going and very loyal to my youngest daughter. She follows her everywhere and waits for her patiently when she goes into buildings. She got a nice flea bath tonight and will be visiting the vet tomorrow for a check up. She looks like the dog Shilo of movie fame.

Sorry to get off topic... I still hate reading....LOL

No need to apologize, I always love discussing animals. Our Sydney is a boy and we adopted him. He was skinny too and had heartworms, but that was almost 3yrs. ago, he's doing great now, just a little small for a male of his breed...good luck w/the little girl, I'm glad she found a kind heart and a good home!
