What's your favourite book?

i can't think of an out and out fav as i have a fair few in my collection although i remember reading Burial (graham masterton) as a kid and really thinking what a difference a fantastic author made. His discription of the events (mainly pulling the insides outside in particular) were just so good i barely had to imagine. Think that was the stage i went off teen books and onto adult (even though i was still at primary school i was always mature and had been reading since i was little). I must read it again sometime to see if i still enjoy it as much. I have the majority of Richard Laymon books i re read his all the time when i'm out of things to read and James patterson i'm collecting his aswell.

It's hard to narrow it down to just one book, because there are several that I love enough to re-read several times. I can give you a short list. First, when I was a teenager I absolutely loved John Christopher's Tripods trilogy, a rattling good action/adventure story about resistance to an alien invasion. I don't know how many times I re-read them, but I never got bored with them. Somewhere along the line I lost possession of the though, so I didn't read them for years as an adult. I had a spot of luck at a Cult TV convention late last year though, I saw all three of the original trilogy plus the sequel on sale second hand, so I bought them and re-read them, and I found that I loved them just as much as when I was a kid - but this time I saw deeper levels to what was going on. The novel I came to as an adult that I most love is Atlas Shrugged by Ayn Rand. This is a massive book, roughly 1,000 pages, but each page loaded with ideas. When I first read it, it confirmed and clarified a lot of my own feelings about how life works, the nature of morality etc. I've re-read it once or twice since then, and I don't suppose it'll be long before I read it again. Looking back, it was probably a key part of my evolution to my current political outlook (libertarian). Given my obsession with space travel, my third choice would have to be the first astronaut autobiography I ever read, which is Seize the Moment by Helen Sharman. This describes how she was selected and trained to be the first British astronaut to make it into space, and what it was like to spend a week on board Mir. I've read that at least a couple of times.

Wind in the Willows Munchkin. I grew up on the banks of the Thames and swam, sailed, canoed and rowed in and on it. I like to read it in winter in bed. I pull the duvet up and start to read about Ratty, Mole, Badger and TOAD! I even have mental images for where various events took place. In fact the book was written about five miles down stream of where I lived. I am not good at boy/girl romance I am afraid. I have read most of Jane Austen's works, but little of the Bronte's i am afraid. You'll have to convert me.

My favourite book I guess has to be the other boleyn girl, I could read this book over and over. It is beautifully written, and is a fantastic look into what life was like in the tudor period.

Mine's surely Lord Of The Rings. I love all the environment that Tolkien created.. It's so detailed that you think that it's world is real! And, considering that it's a HUGE book, but it's interesting from the beginning to the end, I'm really sure about choosing this book as the best that I've read.

The Alchemist of author Paulo Coelho. It's a great life-affirming story about a shepherd and the worlds great mysteries. It made me think a lot more about how I saw at the world in my weekdays. Great story that's certain.

i am starting to like the books of francine pascal.. i love the fearless series by francine pascal..i love the stories of each book, it just nice and easy to read...and i can relate to the way the author writes the story, because of the dialouge she is using (realistic), overall, its a nice book for teens, and also adults...

Up to now there is no one,i think maybe because i don't like reading,but i am changing hard,recenly i often go to bookstore,i already had read a few books,but i found the books which i read don't make me to think more,just i read for reading,one of myfriend in mylot recommend one book named 'The secret'for me,some days ago i didn't find it,but today i got it finally and i have no more time to read,tomorrow i will go to bookstore to read it all day,hope it can give me a surprise.

The Alchemist by Paolo Coehlo. I like most of his books. I'm into philosophical books. I find that i really learn a lot from them.

My favorite book is The gift.. um i forgot the author though.. I'm into romance novels so the story is about an arranged marriage between two clans to have their clans stop fighting. The main characters were married at a very young age meaning the girl was 4 and the guy was 14... it's hilarious and it was a historical romance so anyways i love that book i'm still asking my aunt to give me the book with an extra dose of puppy dog eyes... x)

my favourite book is Omerta by Mario Puzo,i read it both in turkish and english, actually omerta means the silence rule of the mafia members so its a book about mafia, i like all books of Mario Puzo but this one is my favourite, i reccomend you to read if you are interested in mafia facts, anyway happy mylottings

all books of suzana tamaro,danielle steel.

I love books and love to read. My favorite book of all time is The Good Earth by Pearl S. Buck. Probably, I love the book as much as the situation at the time of discovery. I was in the 6th grade when my teacher suggested the book. A favorite teacher - a favorite book. Another book that comes to mind is The Secret Life of Bees. A more recent read, but a really good book. Hope this inspires some of you to try these two books.

So,talk about the favourite book,I think that book ,named Sudongpo .

My favourite book of all time is "Jonathan Livingston Seagull" by Richard Bach. It is a short story about a seagull that chooses to ignore the standard behaviours of other gulls and rather than spend his life fighting for food and merely surviving, he chooses to master flight. By doing this he is ostracized from his family and disgraced in the eyes of his flock but ultimately ends up experiencing pure perfection and finding others like himself. I love this book because it is inspiring with a simple message that we must all aim for something more than normality! If you have never read it I suggest you do! It takes all of a couple of hours to read and I have read it myself many, many times and never get bored of it.

I love reading mystery books like Sherlock Holmes. I can;t stop reading this books until I know what happen in that next chapter. Being detective of Holmes makes me think that its good to be detective and solve mystery. I love also Harry Potter.

i have many favorite books,,.but i like readig books such us a tale and a myth.,., nor legend,.,,once i started to read a book like that...im so excited to read the climax,.,.,and i keep it always i my mind.,.,never to forget,.,.

i am not really into reading books especially the long ones.. i prefer pictures.. hehehe... but once we had this novel reading in our english class and we were required to read a book.. i bought Amy Tan's Hundred Secret Senses, because i like the colorful cover. i was intrigued by the plot which involves a story of reincarnation among the characters.. I came to like it and so i started to buy some novels after that one. so my favorite book is Hundred Secret Senses by Amy Tan..

My fav book is THE SECRET by Rhonda Bryne. It's very a good book. Do you ever read it?

My favorite book is The adventures of Sherlock Holmes by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle. It is a classic book that available to download for free. I found it amusing to read it.
