What’s your favorite book? May as well ask which is your favorite child, or what’s the best city in the world to visit. Why try to consolidate all those wonderful options into a single choice? My usual answer is either the last book I read or the one I’m about to read now. And it’s true—each book is my favorite while I’m enjoying it. I’ve known people who could read the same book or watch the same movie over and over. Not me. “The End” really is the end for me. It’s not that I mind knowing what’s going to happen. I enjoy biographies even though the general outline is known before the book starts. There’s no surprise when Jacqueline Bouvier falls in love with the handsome young John Kennedy. The adventure is in finding out how an author tells the story, even when the tale is draped over known facts. When the mystery of that adventure is complete, it’s time for a new book!
