Charming, this just swallowed my comment. :( New try.
If I haven’t read the papers – my paper – I feel cut out from the world; when I’ve read it I just feel depressed.
Lazy as I am, I'm posting my answers here:
1. In retrospect, I think Live Together, Die Alone. Interestingly enough, it doesn’t feature any of my three favourite characters: Daniel, Richard and Juliet.
2. Not that The Road isn’t great, but I’m going to have to say Atonement by Ian McEwan. It’s got this fascinating meta level, the characters are compelling and it’s kind of heart-wrenching – makes you cry. The movie makes you cry, too.
3. Should’ve known what goes around comes around, eh? ;) I reserve the right to name three songs, too: Avalanche, By the Rivers Dark and Waiting for the Miracle. Album? After last year’s concert I really started listening to Ten New Songs – but his earlier records are, of course, brilliant.
4. In my teens, I wanted to become a human rights lawyer; now I’m heading into another direction. But I guess something that provides an intellectual challenge and makes you feel like you’re doing some good, at least.
5. Harry Potter. Really got into it in 2003 – had obviously read the first four books earlier. Kept me in its claws for four years, then utterly broke my heart. Lost must’ve been my rebound guy; got more closely acquinted with the fandom aspect of SPN as late as S4. Castiel – yay!
