Herding Cats II

Let's Get Literate is hosting this challenge which runs from April 1 to December 31. I don't have a list ready but this is too fun not to try.


Rules
1. Make a list of five books you love. Directions:

* Five. I'm as serious as a beached whale.
* All titles must be books you've read in 2007, 2008 or 2009.
* Please don't list a series; just the first book. If you really want to list a book in the middle of a series, you can, but it has to be that specific book.
* Feel free to share why you're putting the book on your list, because I am nosy.
