ABC Book Meme!

This meme appears courtesy of Rebecca at Lost in Books!

For this meme, you list a favorite* book that starts with each letter of the alphabet. If you don't have a book for a letter (such as Z or X) than you can substitute a favorite book that simply has that letter in the title (ex. The Lost City of Z or Hot Six by Janet Evanovich). However, you can only do this a maximum of 3 times. (Z, X, and Q. But not Z, X, Q, and V.) Books can be of any genre from fiction to non-fiction to poetry to textbooks.

On an unrelated note, I bought (yet) another book: Don't You Forget About Me: Contemporary Writers on the Films of John Hughes (it was in the clearance sale and I love Sixteen Candles)

*Not sure exactly how "favorite" this is; it's more like whatever I could think of first that I actually liked particularly for the rarer letters.
