While this immortality is great for awhile, eventually you realize it’s past time to die. Which book would you expect to get you a nice grave? I second Iliana’s opinion on The Moby Dick.

I’m snapping into it but I need a little more time contemplating the answers to questions on three characters I would bring to life and the VIP reading recommendation. My answers will be posted tomorrow. In the meantime, enjoy the highlights from Cameron Highlands in Malaysia, the complete set is available on Flickr.

I mean, he seems to be out there quite a bit so why aren't people reading him? I would like to read more that's for sure. The book I read was an easy read yet the message wasn't a simple one. Lots of meaning. Matt – Oh good, I want to hear about your perfect library :) And you are right, it is strange that it doesn’t seem the Dalai Lama is read a lot.

I've tagged as well so I'll snap into it soon. I'm glad you have enjoyed and been rejuvenated by The Art of Happiness. Being an internationally known figure, it's surprising I don't hear more reading reading Dalai Lama. Owing to my studies and personal interests, I make it a habit to re-read at least two Dostoevsky novels plus The Master and Margarita every year. Need I say more about that? :) This one has surely cropped up all over the place. I’ve tagged as well so I’ll snap into it soon.

I haven't written up my answers yet to this meme but I'm stuck on a book to recommend. Your tea with the lady sleuths sounds fun. Oh and I haven't read The Scarlet Letter either.

You know if I hadn't already seen most of the movies then I may have been persuaded to read the books but now I feel like it's too late. ha.ha. I'm so surprised you had a whole course on Hawthorne and didn't read SL... Now I don't feel so bad :) Chrisbookarama - Oh you are good! I love that :) Kisane - Cool, I'm going to check out your answers! And, no I haven't seen the movie and probably won't. Don't want to ruin a good book through a film! Stephanie - You know, I was going back and forth on Poirot and Miss Marple. He is so great isn't he. I've only read a few Christie books but am looking forward to more. Thank goodness she wrote so many :) Nymeth – I can imagine the books have a lot more than the movies.

As much as I love Miss Marple, I think I would have to say I love Hercule Poirot just a tiny bit more!! That man and his little grey cells just crack me up!! Man...that makes me want to read some more Christie!! Yeah...The Book Thief WAS fantastic, wasn't it?? I just did this meme myself. Such fun!!
