Really?! I was soooo looking forward to your list too. Wait, if series count, I want to change my whole list to include the vampire chronicles, the mayfair witches cronicles, and the dark tower series! Chat Icon

One Hundred Years of Solitude

The Outsiders

Love in the Time of Cholera

I'm cheating - I'd also bring a copy of the play "Laughter on the 23rd Floor" because I forgot a funny on my list of 5

On a deserted island I'd want some big meaty books instead of my typical favorites, so:

Crime and Punishment
Confederacy of Dunces
Catch-22
2666 -- Roberto Bolano
a maybe a book about surviving on a deserted island...
