One book

I was hoping to avoid this for fear of being shown to be an uncultured philistine, but since Tim tagged me, here goes...

1. One book that changed your life:
The Bible.

2. One book that you’ve read more than once:
The Firm, John Grisham

3. One book you’d want on a desert island:
Something that would teach me how to survive on a desert island .. how about The Swiss family Robinson by Johann Wyss

4. One book that made you laugh:
Eats, Shoots and Leaves, Lynne Truss

5. One book that made you cry:
Bridge to Terabithia, Katherine Paterson

6. One book that you wish had been written:
A well argued, comprehensive and sensitive account of a biblical understanding of what it means to be a woman in the image of God, celebrating our distinctiveness without accepting cultural stereotypes.

7. One book that you wish had never been written:
At the risk of being shot down in flames for suggesting it, Lord of the Rings so i don't have to keep defending myself for never having read it.

8. One book you’re currently reading:
Like Father Like Son: the trinity imaged in our humanity, Tom Smail

9. One book you’ve been meaning to read:
The first of the Harry Potter books - because I just never got around to any of them.

10. Now tag five or six people:
Still can't work out how to do html links, but I'll go the Oak Hill crowd who are currently on summer holidays and should be doing heaps of leisurely reading and have time to tell us about it: Ros, Dawn, Helen, Marc Lloyd, Big Pete and Andrew Towner.
