        <![CDATA[ Don&#39;t take too long to think about it. Use completely your &quot;top of mind&quot; awareness faculties here. Fifteen books you&#39;ve read that will always
stick with you. First fifteen you can recall in no more than 15 minutes.


Here is my own list in no particular order:


1. The Adventures of Tom Sawyer by Mark Twain (possibly my all-time favorite book; at least my favorite classic book)

2. Lonesome Dove by Larry McMurtry (probably the longest book I&#39;ve read at over 900 pages)... ]]>

summary...

<br>
2. The Lord of The Rings - J.R.R. Tolkien

The Making of The African Queen Or How I Went To Africa with Bogart, Bacall and Huston and almost lost my mind.

like to soon. It&#39;s read by Miss Hepburn herself. It&#39;s a 3-CD set so there&#39;s obviously a... ]]></description>
