A lot of people spends their time in reading. And am of those people, too. My all time favourite books are fairytales... it always bring back my childhood memories. I've got mine, so what's yours? And why?

I don't have a single favourite book but a trilogy, written by Bernard Cornwell. The trilogy is called The Warlord Chronicles, and is about Arthurian times. My second favourite would be Mists of Avalon, by Marion Zimmer-Bradley. I love that one too.

Is Bernard Cornwell related to Patricia Cornwell? I'm just wondering.

I've often wondered that myself, but I think not. Bernard Cornwell was born in London and married and American lady, named Judy. Patricia Cornwell was born in Miami, Patricia Carroll Daniels, and later changed her name, so I very much doubt they are related, my friend.

My favorite book of all time is a book by Wlter Dean Myers. The book is called Fallen Angels. The book is great. It is my favorite book because it is about the war that took place in Vietnam. It i about a 17 year old boy who just graduated from high school and headed off to war. My other favorite book is called Speak. It is about a teenage girl whonce was popular untill she went to a party with her frends. At this party she was raped about a popular dude in highschool after that event no one liked her anymore because she clld the police

I don't read books at all, but I do remember reading books when I was younger. I used to like the fairytale books and the love story ones. It just made me feel warm inside and helped me escape from life's troubles.

What a great question! Favorite Childhood Book: The Adventures of Winnie the Pooh by A A Milne Favorite Youth Book: The Phantom Tollbooth by Norton Juster Favorite Two Books: The Runaway Jury by John Grisham and Skipping Christmas by John Grisham Favorite Two Classics: Wuthering Heights by Emily Bronte and The Importance of Being Earnest by Oscar Wilde - the John Grisham books are just SO engaging, that I can't put them down, I get so addicted to them. The childhood and youth books are a definitely must read, and really well the classics as well. Winnie the Pooh is something every child should engage in and get to know because the morals are so rich and the characters so enjoyable; I learned a lot from what I read as a child! - Matthew

Wow! what a great choice. Like you, I also love reading John Grisham novels, especially Runaway Jury and the Chamber. Those are a real page-turner one, I got annoyed when somebody had disturbed my reading.

My all time favourite book is Take it like a man by Boy George. I loved culture club as a youngster and his life is very interesting and he tells it as it is.
