6 of Beethoven's piano sonatas to keep, when the rest would be erased from existence, which would they be?

109
106
moonlight
appasionata
tempest
pastorale
i don't really like all of 106 but simply for the parts that i like so much and i like the scope of it. actually i love all of it except the last movement kinda gets wasted on me.
i'm a noob don't make fun :p

i love 106's last movement, maybe because i always love fugue, so complicated and yet so fun!

there are fugues i like (diabelli variations, brahms's handel variations for example)...but that one just doesn't quite do it for me. maybe i'll like it more in the future.
