7. A book you loved in high school: Les Miserables
8. A book you hated in high school: The Sound and the Fury – Faulkner

16. Your favourite biography: Truman - McCullough
17. Your favourite coming-of-age book: The Red Badge of Courage - does that count?
18. Your favourite book not on this list: I have to think hard about this. This exercise is almost like the memory challenge to think of things you can’t remember just to see what you DO remember!
For some of those, I would not be able to come up with anything either. I may borrow this if my procrastination gets bad enough or I want a break
Ooh, what a fun meme! But before I get too distracted, I came by to tell you that you won a book over at my blog.
