    #1794791 - 08/09/03 06:48 AM (20 years, 7 months ago)

If you could recomend any 3 books what would they be? I'll get the ball rolling.

1. The Thunder: Perfect Mind
2. The Marriage of Heaven and Earth by William Blake
3. The Book of Lambspring

These are the books that really inspired me spiritualy. I'm a major book worm and im going to make a serious atempt to read everything you guys suggest.
