Brad tagged me with the Viral Book Questionaire. I usually don't respond to this kind of intimidation, but I'm sure Brad had his reasons. Anyway, it makes me realize that I need to read more... at least more things published on paper.
- One book that changed your life. I'd say it's a toss up between A Course In Miracles and What it Means to be a Libertarian by Charles Murray. Each book made me see things in a radically different light, even though I'm not a huge fan of either any longer. I guess that's what it means to be growing intellectually.
- One book that you have read more than once. The Law of One series published by L/L Research. Probably read the series all the way through about five times, and learn something new each time.
- One book that you would want on a desert island. Hmm... I would think I'd want something I hadn't read before, but if I had to pick something I've already read... probably Kurt Vonnegut's Cat's Cradle.
- One book that made you laugh. That's a tough one... probably some David Sedaris book I read. Of course we're speaking of proper literature here, not things like America.
- One book that made you cry. I think Heinlein's Stranger in a Strange Land might have evoked a tear... but again I'm not sure. I'm pretty sure the end of the Lord of the Rings trilogy was emotional for me the first time I read it.
- One book you wish had been written. Oh, that's easy: The Illuminatus! Trilogy by R.A. Wilson and Robert Shea. A brilliant and perfectly executed look at conspiracy theory.
- One book you wish had never been written. I find this question a bit distasteful... probably Chicken Soup for the Soul. How vapid.
- One book you are currently reading. The Undercover Economist by Tim Hartford
- One book you have been meaning to read. Human Action by Ludwig von Mises
