What 10 books would *I* choose? <BR/><BR/>It's kind of expanding on the 'What Three Books would you want on a desert island?' theme I've seen before.

I've gone through close to ten copies over the year because it's one of those books that people borrow and never return. So when I found a hardcover copy, I snapped it up (it's impossible to find.) Now I always keep a paperback copy around to lend to people, knowing it will never return - but I have my permanent volume.Janelle Martinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05536790002694671056noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13287651.post-1147818495986898212006-05-16T18:28:00.000-04:002006-05-16T18:28:00.000-04:00I'm guessing you like Good Omens?
