Book Meme

I was over at Helen's site and saw that she picked up a Book Meme that looked interesting. Being the avid reader I am, I thought I'd jump in:

You're stuck inside Fahrenheit 451, which book do you want to be?
Like Helen and the bloggers before her, I presume this means which book would you want burned.......the only book I can think of that was so bad I'd want to burn it was The Fountainhead by Ayn Rand. Go ahead, objectivists -- sue me (no, really. I think I can take it.)

Have you ever had a crush on a fictional character?
I had a small crush on Peter Pan when I was younger, but that was mostly after seeing the play performed at a civic center in West Texas one summer and the kid who played Peter was awfully cute. So I guess that doesn't count.

The last book you bought is:
The Rule of Four by Ian Caldwell and Dustin Thomason.

The last book you read:
I've started several, but the last one I finished was The Jane Austen Book Club by Karen Joy Fowler.

What are you currently reading?
Offshore by Penelope Fitzgerald.

Five books you would take to a deserted island:
The Amazing Adventures of Kavalier & Clay by Michael Chabon
The Secret History by Donna Tartt
One Hundred Years of Solitude by Gabriel Garcia Marquez
The Bible
A diary (just to torture myself).
