.....over at Happy Catholic (link to the right). It's about books, how could I resist????
You're stuck inside Fahrenheit 451. Which book do you want to be?
I would memorize To Kill a Mockingbird by Harper Lee. I probably could do it, too! Second choice? The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe by C.S. Lewis.
Have you ever had a crush on a fictional character?
Of course. And while I agree that Jean Luc Picard is AWESOME (Julie, you and I are too much alike!), I currently have a crush on (are you ready for this?) WOLVERINE from the X-men movie. Go figure.
The last book you bought was...?
The Fat Fallacy by Will Clower.
The last book you read was...?
See above.
What are you currently reading?
The Shipping News by Annie Proulx and the G.K. Chesterton biography by Joseph Pearce.
Five books you would take to a desert island...
1. My RSV Bible.
2. To Kill a Mockingbird
3. Chronicles of Narnia (the one volume version! cheat, I know)
4. Lord of the Rings
5. Kristin Lavransdatter
What three people are you passing this stick on to and why?
Steven at Flos Carmeli, because he will put me to shame with his choices
Peony and/or Pansy at Two Sleepy Mommies, because I love them
Erik at Erik's Rants and Recipes because I will never have heard of anything he chooses.
My dear, we are WAY too much alike. To Kill a Mockingbird is one of my very favorite books.
AND Wolverine ... ahhhh yes ... that is one of the best thing about the Xmen movies ... they have both Patrick Stewart (who somehow still manages to be sexy in a wheelchair) AND Wolverine with many shirtless scenes (it's that whole bad boy with a heart of gold thing).
I liked To Kill a Mockingbird a lot. In fact, so much that I developed a life-long aversion to Gregory Peck for starring in that horrid film they made of it.
Love your choice of the RSV. The psalms don't sound quite right in any other version. And Narnia! You are a chick with excellent taste.
