1)Total number of books owned?
My Excel worksheet goes up to 530, but that includes section titles--so a bit over 500. This includes 12 boxes worth in my mother's garage.
2) The last book I bought?
George Carlin - When Will Jesus Bring the Pork Chops? Sunday 1 May, Newark Airport.
3) The last book I read?
Just finished Jasper Fforde's Something Rotten, but it was a re-read. Currently reading Freakonomics.
4) 5 books that mean a lot to me?
Larousse Gastronomique (Actually, it's hard to pick just one food related book)
Copy of Tanach (Jewish Bible) (though I don't like Artscroll's "allegorical" rendering of Song of Songs--someday I'll pick up the JPS translation) (toss up between Tanach and siddur [prayerbook])
George Orwell, 1984
Douglas Adams, The Hitch-Hiker's Guide to the Galaxy
Oxford Dictionary
Edit: Sincemooism decided that I took his place, I have to tag. So, my 5 taggees:
