Today's Booking Through Thursday is a book meme that's been circulating around the web. Here goes:
What was the last book you bought?
I have no idea. I ordered a bunch of Scholastic books recently but I don't remember any of the titles and haven't received the order yet. But I did just receive When the Emperor Was Divine via PaperbackSwap.

Has a book ever fundamentally changed the way you see life? If yes, what was it?
The Bible seems the obvious answer here.

Recommendations and reviews.
Do you prefer Fiction or Non-Fiction?
Both, but I read more fiction.

Tallgrass by Sandra Dallas.

And I thought The Ten Year Nap looked so good!
I forgot about Scout when I was answering that question. Love her!
I have Tallgrass in my TBR pile, too. I'll get to it one of these days.
