I'd rather be in Scotland...

Since Wolf and Laura tagged me on this I thought I'd give it a go.

1) Total number of books I've owned?

If we are counting the books I’ve inherited from my parents plus any books I’ve sold or lost over the years I’d say it’d be close to a thousand. Books I currently own has to be several hundred.

2) The last book I bought?

Hallowed Hunt by Lois McMaster Bujold. Bought yesterday.

3) The last book I read?

I’m almost finished with Hallowed Hunt, in the past few weeks I’ve reread both Curse of Chalion and Paladin of Souls. I tried reading Confessions of an Ugly Stepsister by Gregory McGuire but the tone or voice he used annoyed me to no end.

4) Five books that mean a lot to me:

I can easily name the book series I rabidly follow:
Harry Potter
Vorkosigan
Discworld
Mary Russell
5 God Series by LMB

As far as individual books…well I can’t pick single volumes out. I have too many books and need more shelf space before I can start any other series.

The only person I know who hasn't done this is Teri, So I'll tag her now that she's done with school.
