Rules: In a text post, list ten books that have stayed with you in some way. Don’t take but a few minutes, and don’t think too hard — they don’t have to be the “right” or “great” works, just the ones that have touched you. Tag ten friends, including me, so I’ll see your list. Make sure you let your friends know you’ve tagged them.

A little baby dragon stumbles into your askbox, holding a small if not slightly burnt letter in his mouth. He hands the note to you, “I love you. You are a wonderful, loved person.” Pass it onto the people you feel deserve it the most.
