OK, here’s how it works: Copy the list, delete the names of the authors you don’t have on your home library shelves and replace them with names of authors you do have. Bold the replacements.

I got it from Grant who reads Sean Bonner who thinks tony pierce is da bomb, who has a crush on annika, who cut a slice of the cheese stands alone who nicked it from A Likely Story, who was checking out Llama Butchers, who listens to Jenspeaks, who found it at Fire Ant Gazette who held onto it from white pebble via Rox Populi who squeaked at Mouse Words who was studying Philobiblon who learned it from The Little Professor who found it at lovely, lonely New Kid on the Hallway who seems to have picked it up at Celandine’s Chronicle on Dec. 29, but since Live Journal is suffering a massive power failure right now, I’m afraid that’s the end of the line.

Anyway, my picks are:

  1. Eric Meyer
  2. Michael Connelly
  3. Robertson Davies (Canadian)
  4. J.R.R. Tolkien
  5. Aldous Huxley
  6. J.D. Salinger
  7. Steve Pinker
  8. Donald Norman
  9. Tanya Huff
  10. C.S. Lewis
