The booker award
I was recently nominated for The Booker Award by the delightful Maureen, author at Magnolia Beginnings, and although I never accept blogger award nominations – my ego being already over-inflated – this one had me thinking about all the wonderful books I have read over the years.
Here is a list of my top, all-time five:
- Catch 22 by Joseph Heller
- The Dangerous and Painful Masturbation Magic Pop-Up Book by Paul Bollokov
- Gormenghast (trilogy) by Mervyn Peake
- The Mechanism of Mind by Edward de Bono
- Narziss and Goldmund by Hermann Hesse
- 101 Recipes for Kittens by B B Q Feline
- Fermat’a Last Theorem by Simon Singh
- Catcher in the Rye J D Salinger
- Mark Twain by Huckleberry Finn
- Trainspotting by Irvin Welsh
- How to lose Friends and Irritate people byDale Carnage
- The Fractal Geometry of Nature by Benoit B Mandelbrot
- The Yoga Guide to Self-Felation by Ike A N Bendova
- Watchmen by Alan Moore
- How to Count to Five by Arthur Unknown
I’ve not followed Maureen for long but her blog is a must-follow and full of sweet, smart, well written observations and musings, and her avatar picture makes for fantastic masturbation material. Thank you Maureen.

Better than I could have hoped for although after months of working on my pop-up book discovering someone else has already beat me to it, as they say, is quite upsetting. Damn Russians!

thank you – i know how you feel, they beat me to it with my ‘pop-up book of embarrassing diseases’ – which book were you working on?

It was a book about my former lovers. Unfortunately, they have now reached the age where they don’t pop like they used to so the book was a a little flaccid.

🙂 Kyle, love how you give your own spin on these! Still smiling.

glad to hear it susan – thank you 🙂

Kyle, I think perhaps, when you have time, you should read #15 again.
Better yet, set up a tutoring session with your shopping buddy Max.
He can at least get you 4, then just add one (that’s 4 + 1 = 5)
Oh and #9? One of us must have read it backwards…could have sworn the version I read was Yrrebelkcuh Nnif yb Kram Niawt
#13 is a great read too (well, i just look at the pictures). Awesome adaptation of the downward facing dog on page 69. How do they DO that?

Man of taste, certainly. I can’t claim to know all the works on that list, but I give kudos to Catch-22 and a major shout-out to Watchmen.
