“This can be a quick one. Don’t take too long to think about it. Fifteen books you’ve read that will always stick with you. First fifteen you can recall in no more than 15 minutes.”
Since it's supposed to be quick, I won't take the time to find links. I like links, because I always want to check out books that people mention. But you can open amazon.com in a new window and then search if you'd like.
Starting my 15 minutes now at 3:25 -- no particular order:
- My Own Country by Abraham Verghese
- The Color Code (nutrition)
- Into Thin Air by John Krakauer
- The Kite Runner by Kholeid Hosseni
- Stepping Heavenward by Elizabeth Prentiss
- Grace-Based Parenting by Tim Kimmel
- The Penderwicks by Jeanne Birdsall (I really enjoyed it and it renewed my love for reading children's lit)
- The Glass Castle by Jeanette Walls
- Every Mother is a Daughter by Perri and Sheila Klass
- Hannah's Dream by Diane Hammond
- The Help by Kathryn Stockett
- Mandy by Julie Andrews Edwards (from childhood and sharing with my own children)
- the Little House books (from childhood)
- The Middle Place by Kelly Corrigan

HA! I had the HARDEST time not taking the extra time to include the Amazon links with my titles. I like the links too. ;) I had to FORCE myself to move on . . .
Great list! Like I told Carrie, I think I will totally do this over at my place...but tomorrow...
I really like this Booking Through Thursday... Of course, today's Friday, so I missed it. :) I'd have to include the Chronicles of Narnia, since they are never far from my mind. And The Marriage Builder by Larry Crabb, which really helped me see marriage in a new light.
I loved reading your list -- thanks for sharing!
We have The Kite Runner in both our lists! :D
Thanks for popping by!
Great list, though the only ones I've read are the little house books. Have some catching up to do.
My post is finally up. here
