erm....cut & paste went all wonky on me and the answer to question number one appears to be on question number two and the answer to two is completely missing......
so here's number two: What is your favorite book in general (non-classic) and why? I think you already know the answer to that one :p The Power of One by Bryce Courtenay, hands down. And it says a lot that that has been my constant favorite for nearly twelve years now, considering how much I read :p Why, you ask? (and, yes, I know you didn't ask because you already know but perhaps some of your other readers will brave this long post and will wish to know.....) The threads that tie the book together--themes of self-reliance, of overcoming the odds, of self-discovery, of finding the few people who irrevocably change your life for good or bad and learning to deal with those changes, of growing and learning, of not being afraid of who you are.
