1) Total number of books I've owned?:
1000's

2) The last book I bought?:
Yesterday I found a new bookshop and picked up a little book on chinese festivals of both Han and Minority peoples published by Foreign Language Press.

3) The last book I read?:
"Feminism and World Religion" See last journal entry,
Currently reading; White Lotus Teachings in Chinese Religions History by B.J. ter Haar
And Three Kingdoms Vol 2

4) 5 books that mean a lot to me?:
Hard to say
"Inner Quarters" by Patricia Ebrey as it got me to take a class from her and got me back to unversity and closer to grad school.
"Dream of Red Mansions" cause it's practically perfect.
crap, it's difficult to pick just 5, and so hard to pick 5 out of all different catagories, and from the whole of my life. There are too many books!
I love HG Wells, The sleeper must awaken, Thackery's Vanity Fair, Douglas Adams Hitchhikers series cause I got to share it with my dad. Asimov's "Caves of steel" because it's proto cyber punk and has robots, Stephen Teiser's book "The Ghost Festival" cause I'd love to write a book like that someday, as the same can be said for "In search of Personal Welfare" by Muchou Poo. I think my favorite book on early Chinese religion. I'm sure I could go on and on. The theme of this journal is books, and theres a lot in my interest list. I seem to be bad at picking favorites.


5) Tag 5 people and have them fill this out on their LJs:
A lot of people see to have already done this, but if your reading this and you'd like to then you should fill it in as well!
