Frith-in-Thorns made me do it

Book meme!

List 10 books that have stayed with you. 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 ones which have touched you.

My list is ridiculous and I feel as if people will judge me. :P

1. Good Omens by Neil Gaiman & Terry Pratchett
2. Litle House in the Big Woods by Laura Ingalls Wilder
3. Elfquest by Wendy & Richard Pini (shut up it is totally a book)
4. Mystery of the Witches' Bridge by Barbee Carlton
5. Clan of the Cave Bear/The Valley of Horses by Jean M. Auel
6. The Lord of the Rings series by JRR Tolkein
7. Dragonworld by Byron Preiss & Michael Reaves
8. The Amber series by Roger Zelazny
9. Watership Down by Richard Adams
10. Jane Eyre by Charlotte Bronte

They're almost entirely from my childhood; I think the only one that leapt to mind that I read as an adult was Good Omens.

I read the Amber series when I was in high school after seeing my older brother read 'em and loved it!

I think my list would have to include Deerskin by Robin Mckinley, The X-Wing series from the Star Wars EU, The Lightbearer by Donna Gillespie, Small Gods by Terry Pratchett, The Deed of Paksenarrion by Elizabeth Moon, & Alanna by Tamora Pierce. Not quite sure about the rest though.
