Deb said: I saw this over at Shelley’s, and thought it sounded like a great question for all of you:
“This can be a quick one. Don’t take too long to think about it. Fifteen books you’ve read that will always stick with you. First fifteen you can recall in no more than 15 minutes.”

I scoured my brain for my earliest memories of my favorite books, and there were many of the childhood books that I read over and over, which are 1 - 11 in my list. I really enjoyed the Gilbert Grape book very much, if you haven't read it, it is a great coming of age type read. I just may read it again!
