How strange...I was just thinking how nice it would be to have a thread on this subject! Now I'll have to make the time YET AGAIN to read this whole thing, and the others listed above!

I have one true addiction, and they are books. I know this thread has been out of circulation for a long while, but if anyone reads this, and wants to offer some of their favorites, I'd be most beholding...

As to my own favs...the top on my list is "Magister Ludi ( or The Glass Bead Game) by Hermann Hesse

It's a long list, and in some cases easier to mention authors, as I seem to read my way through whatever someone I really like has written.

My latest is Sheri S. Tepper, which if you like Science Fiction or Feminist literature, or just a darn good read, I highly recommend.

I hesitate really getting going here, because like all addictions, I can wax lyrical...and truth be told, I'm far more interested in seeing what some of you have to recommend.

If this thread gets re-energized, I'd be happy to add on to it..but let's see if there are any other bites!
