Kicking this off. Do you have an all time favorite book? Author? Drop an answer to get the group rolling on the right foot!

Until last year, my favorite book was The Vampire Lestat, and my favorite author was Neil Gaiman.

And then I discovered Brandon Sanderson and The Stormlight Archive. I'm still reading through the series, but I think my favorite author has changed at the very least.
