The book meme from MissMeliss

1) Total number of books I've owned?  Well into the 1,000s, if not the 10,000s.  I lightened up a lot when I had to leave my home.  But that was 7 years ago and I've been buying a lot.  So I'm starting to deaccession via Amazon -- first sale yesterday.

2) The last book I bought? Bad Magic, by Stephan Zielinski.  The A-Team, or the alternate family from Andrew Vaschss's Burke novels, in a universe where the third eye opens. 

3) The last book I read?  Ready or Not, Here Life Comes, by Mel Levine

4) 5 books that mean a lot to me?

1. The EarthSea Cycle, by Ursula LeGuin
2. Pema Chodron:

5) 5) Tag 5 people and have them fill this out on their journals.
