book shelf project 1 ~ striatic {notes}

Yes, some Oregon posts are soon to come. Mainly composed of photos, most likely. For tonight, I just want to write something light and fun. Therefore, I will hereby share with you the top ten books I could read over and over and over again, the Bible notwithstanding, since that's pretty much a given in my world. Not that I claim to have read every word. Yet.

Alright, in no particular order, I give you the Top Ten Books I Could Read Over and Over and Over Again.

10: Contact by Carl Sagan. I just read it for the first time this year, and plan on turning to it over and over. Amazing story and a good read.

9: Prophet by Frank Peretti. Powerful, believable story.

8: Mark of the Lion Trilogy by Francine Rivers. Hadassah is easily one of my favorite literary heroines of all time.

7: Any book by Jane Austen. Sense & Sensibility and Persuasion top the list, however.

6: A Tale of Two Cities by Charles Dickens. Fantastic book. No other word for it.

5: The Count of Monte Cristo by Alexandre Dumas. I love, love, love this book!

4: Jurassic Park by Michael Crighton. Don't know why. I just really like it.

3: The Anne of Green Gables series by L.M. Montgomery.

2: The Lord of the Rings & The Hobbit by J.R.R. Tolkien. Duh.

1: The Chronicles of Narnia by C.S. Lewis.

To be honest, I had to limit this to the first 10 books that came to mind. There are many more I can easily read and re-read and never tire of. Sigh...

Books just make me happy.
