Materials on EU and International Tax Law Vols 1 and 2 (Kees van Raad) - because eventually I'd get so bored I'd read and learn it in its entirety and really think about what it all means and how it fits together. I could then pass an important set of exams on my return which as yet I haven't pulled my finger out enough to study for.
It has the additional advantage that the pages are very thin and would be both comfortable on the backside and good for lighting fires.
Lord of the Rings (Tolkien) - because although I pretend I've read it, really I haven't. I love his writing style (especially his dialogue) and the setting and the story... but I just can't be bothered reading the book. I swear, this book has been to about six different countries with me in my suitcase and come back barely opened.

The complete works of Tolkien - I've loved the Lord of the Rings since I was small, and I'd like to have the time to really get my head around all the characters and how they're linked, particularly in the Silmarillion, it's definitely a hard work book.
The complete works of Shakespeare - would keep me well occupied for a while.
Something by Terry Pratchett for lighter entertainment - If i could have all of his books that would be great!
I suppose I've cheated by putting complete works down, but the first two definitely count as one book each; I've got them on my bookshelves at home!

Assuming that I'm there for a holiday and/or will be rescued...tricky...it would have to be:
J.R.R. Tolkien - Lord of the Rings because I've been meaning to re-read it for ages!
Anne McCaffrey - Nimisha's Ship
Anne McCaffrey - The Crysal Singer Omnibus (well it is 1 book - it's just got 3 in 1 :P!)
Of course all of those are subject to change depending if I read 1 or more of them before leaving ;);)!!

The Lovely Bones by Alice Seabold - a beautiful book that would make me happy that I am alive
Dean Koontz - Fear Nothing & Seize the Night - brilliant every time I have read them!
How to Survive on a Desert Island ....... would be my last choice

Torah/Old Testament New Testament (isnt in chronological order though) Book of Mormon is same period of time as Bible, just diff location of the world Koran would probably be last edit people the Book of Mormon time period is not last It follows a time line similar to that of the Bible, before and after the time of Christ It just follows people in the Americas instead of the Middle East/Europe
