I picked the ones I seem to read a lot. As for men, if I can only pick one, I would take my husband. If I could bring a second, I'd bring my curling husband too (Jenn, he's the one I told you about who explained to me about the Chinese way of sibling numbering).Mohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11657297164685986013noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12158466.post-31041152559836968982008-10-24T12:29:00.000-05:002008-10-24T12:29:00.000-05:00Only five books?!?

I’d have to choose the Woodwife, by Terri Windling; the Count of Monte Cristo (unabridged) by Alexandre Dumas; Someplace to Be Flying, by Charles de Lint; the Far Pavilions, by M.M. Kaye; and Last of the Breed, by Louis L’Amour.<BR/><BR/>As for men . . . any hawt nekkid men are more than welcome to join me on my little island paradise. ;-)Carol, the cat slavehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01725905181570789823noreply@blogger.com
