I have two:Sanctuary by William Faulkner
and
Tom Jones by Henry Fielding.
They're pretty different but I love them.
I haven't read any of the others mentioned.
Tom Jones is really long. It took me forever because it's a century or two old, I think, and the words are somewhat archaic. The writing is beautiful though.Sanctuary isn't very long and it's the darkest, most enthralling book I've ever read.

So far, of course. I've still got a lot on my TBR pile:)

I love The Book Thief! <333333
My favorites are Jane Eyre and A Tree Grows in Brooklyn. But I agree with Lacey. Whenever I think of Charlotte's Web I want to cry.
Faize wrote: "I Am the Messenger was a great one!!!"IKR! I was so into that book. I need to pick up The Book Thief.
My favorite books are mostly the old ones: The Time Machine
The Picture of Dorian Grey
David Copperfield
John Carter of Mars
But, I recently read and loved The Hunger Games, Interview with The Vampire, and the Game of Thrones Series.
mine's gotta be the harry potter series. xD but i also love all of tamora pierce's tortall series as well! :D <3
I find it so hard to pick just one! Or a few! I love so many! Some of my top books though include:A Song Of Ice And Fire series
The Dark Tower series
Harry Potter series
The Constant Princess
Angels and Demons
I think a lot of my favourite books are series books rather than stand-alones...
I think I'm a series junkie 2. I love to stick with characters for that long, you feel like you've lived their life. I particularly feel that way about game of thrones. I keep reading those if there were like 20.
Same. I love seeing the characters develop and go through all those different experiences and to see what happens to them. Love the ASOIAF books, they're great. I'll keep reading them until they stop being written.
I'm kinda worried he won't finish them, though. People who write such good books should get to live a couple hundred years :)
hard to pick a fav book but here goes: Ronia the Robber's Daughter by Astrid Lindgren. i also love love all Jane Austin books and of course the harry potter series :)
martha, yay! another fan! :D i just found out yesterday that my coworker also enjoyed the series-- two in two days! i actually haven't met anyone who's also read the series which is a shame. which is your favorite? :D
Million Dollar Agent: Brokering the Dream is my favorite book ever, its a great read by bravos hit tv series million dollar listing's josh flagg. i just finished it and i already want to read it again.
It's such a good one, too! I think my favorite is The Immortals one with Daine. It's the first one I read, so I'm partial to it. :3 How did you get introduced to the series? A neighbor of mine gave me her entire Tortall collection (Alanna and Daine, at the time), and I put off reading it for so long. lol
My favorite all time book(s) Duma Key, and then the Thirst series by Christopher Pike, Too hard to pick just one.
My favorite books are: Catch 22, The Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy, A Clockwork Orange, Fight Club and Slaughterhouse 5.
I have entirely too many. I go more by series than I do individual books, so my favorite series thus far are:Patricia Brigg's Mercy Thompson series
Jennifer Estep's Spider Assassin series
Faith Hunter's Jane Yellowrock series
Carrie Vaughn's Werewolf series (Kitty Norville)
Kat Richardson's Greywalker series
Deborah Harkness' A Discovery of Witches
Christine Feehan's Drake Sisters series (and now her Sisters of the Heart series)
that should be enough of a list for now :)
But if you want one book I could read over and over (which isn't common for me)? That would be Dangerous Tides by Christine Feehan, dunno why I like it so much but I do :)
Me, too!! :D I really love that whole series-- just full of awesomeness. :3 And have you read her Beka Cooper series yet?
I haven't read it yet, either-- it's next on my reading list, though! :D I'll try to remember to let you know how it is. :] And those two are so much fun! x3 <3
