OK, I'll play along:
Number of Books I Own: I don't know. A lot. I have a floor-to-ceiling library in my home (hard cover); fiction is categorized by author, non-fiction by subject.
Last Book Purchased: Kremlin Rising, Vladimir Putin's Russia and the End of the Revolution, by Peter Baker and Susan Glasser.
Last Book I Read: Little Children, by Tom Perrotta
Five Books that Mean A Lot: This is a painful exercise, like forcing a parent to choose a favorite child. To make it a little easier, I'm restricting my choices to fiction:
Eugenie Grandet, by Honore de Balzac
The Leopard, by Giuseppe Tomasi di Lampedusa
Humboldt's Gift, by Saul Bellow
The Wapshot Chronicle, by John Cheever
Lonesome Dove, by Larry McMurtry
You're both Lonesome Dove fans? Perhaps I should pick it up.
