"This can be a quick one. Don't take too long to think about it. Fifteen books you've read that will always stick with you. First fifteen you can recall in no more than 15 minutes."

This is not always a recommendation:

The King James Bible
Guns, Germs & Steel by Jared Diamond
The Lord of the Rings by JRR Tolkien
Minoans: Life in Bronze Age Crete by Rodney Castleden
The Mask of Apollo by Mary Renault
The Moon is a Harsh Mistress by Robert Heinlen
Friday (aughgh) by Robert Heinlein
North of Boston by Robert Frost
Barrayar by Lois McMaster Bujold
Cookwise by Shirley Corriher
The Economy of Cities by Jane Jacobs
The Souls of Black Folk by WEB DuBois
The Frugal Gourmet Keeps the Feast by Jeff Smith
Always Coming Home by Ursula K. LeGuin
Mary Reilly by Valerie Martin
