1. What is the last book you read? What did you think about it?
The last book I finished reading was the latest by Kage Baker. Good science fiction. The jacket info was even more interesting, in that Kage seems to be a lapsed Catholic.
2. What were the last three books that you bought? I have a $20 gift check to BN.com. What should I get?
Last three books bought - I have 2 on order right now - Ina May Gaskin's new one- "Ina May's Guide to Natural Childbirth", and "The Courage to Be Catholic: Crisis, Reform, and the Future of the Church" by George Weigel. The last purchase before that was Mark Shea's "By What Authority".
3. Have you ever read any books that changed your life?
Every book read changes one's life in some way.
Bonus Question for Comments: Do you think it is wrong to pirate books, video games and music that is no longer being printed or pressed?
If it was in print, I would pay for it. If it is not in print, and I can't find a copy somewhere, what am I supposed to do? It is wrong to pirate, but I think the system needs to be revised so that there is access to stuff and the authors get paid without the big corporations creating an artificial shortage.
