Alright I'll do the cutting for you. Aeryn Send a noteboard - 23/04/2010 02:58:43 PM
It's supposed to hurt. So I'll do it for you. Here are your favorite 10 books ever:

1 Lord of the Rings - Tolkien
2 The Lions of Al-Rassan - Guy Gavriel Kay
3 Wizard & Glass - Stephen King
4 HitchHiker's Guide to the Galaxy - Douglas Adams
5 Ender's Game - Orson Scott Card
6 Treasure Island - Robert Louis Stevenson
7 Slaughterhouse 5 - Kurt Vonnegut
8 I am Legend - Richard Matheson
9 The Stand - Stephen King
10 Hyperion - Dan Simmons

And these are the books that you don't love as much because if you did, you would make sure that they stayed on the list by cutting out other ones:

Lord of the Flies - William Golding
Animal Farm - George Orwell
The Lies of Locke Lamora - Scott Lynch
Starship Troopers - Robert A. Heinlein
The Blade Itself - Joe Abercrombie
