Ten Books That Changed My Life: July 29, 2004

Must be a list-making day, eh? Roughly in the order in which I encountered them:

1. The Bible
2. The Lord of the Rings (Tolkien)
3. What Color Is Your Parachute? (Bolles)
4. The Road Less Traveled (Peck)
5. Feeling Good (Burns)
6. How to Heal Depression (Bloomfield and McWilliams)
7. Thou Shalt Not Be Aware (Miller)
8. Awareness (de Mello)
9. The Gay 100 (Russell)
10. The Wisdom of the Enneagram (Riso and Hudson)

As for number eleven, it would be a toss-up between The Seven Habits of Highly Effective People (Covey) and The Joy of Gay Sex (Silverstein et al)... and I bet that's the first time those two particular books have ever been mentioned in the same sentence :-)
