Books that will always stick with me - a meme

[joyfinderhero]

"Don't think about it too much. List fifteen books you've read that will always stick with you. Don't take more than fifteen minutes to make your list."

I read this invitation over at notjustaboutcancer.blogspot.com and I was hooked. Had to see which of the books I really remember well would pop up. And what about their authors? can I get the titles right? or only 'approximately' right?

Here are the fifteen that popped up in five minutes. Before I'd finished looking up their exact titles and authors I could have named two dozen more.

Little Lord Fauntleroy (Frances Hodgson Burnett)
Stranger in a Strange Land (Robert Heinlein)
Proposition 31 (Robert Rimmer)
The Meno Dialog (Plato)
Nicomachean Ethics (Aristotle)
The Moon is a Harsh Mistress (Heinlein again)
Baldur's Gate [not the game, but a 1960s novel I can't find now]
Table for Five (Susan Wiggs)
The Stone Diaries (Carol Shield)
The Lovely Bones (Alice Sebold)
The Color Purple (Alice Walker)
Possessing the Secret of Joy (Walker again)
Things Fall Apart (Chinua Achebe)
Brothers and Sisters (Bebe Moore Campbell)
The Judgment (D.W. Boffa)

Others that clamor for acknowledgment:

Spiral Dance (Starhawk)
The World Without Us (Alan Weisman)
You Just Don't Understand (Deborah Tannen)
Anita Shreve
Ursula K. LeGuin

... but I think I'll stop there.

Anybody else want to play?
