When I was in the 11th grade I read "Gone With the Wind". This book quickly became my favorite novel and has continued to be more than 42 years later. Everyone has a favorite novel that has lasted them a life time, what is yours?

That is a tough question, I personally have more than one favorite. East of Eden by John Steinbeck comes to mind as does Of Mice and Men by him, but also I have favorites that over the years I go back and re read. Peter David, has a Star Trek New Frontier series, as does Marjorie M Liu have several from her Dirk and Steele that can be considered favorites, period piece I would say would be toss up between Johanna Lindsey's Mallory family books and Jude Deveraux's Montgomery family, and the White Indian Series by Donald Clayton Porter. I was lucky many of my favorite books had been turned into series so I can continue to read about the characters. There is a book called How Much For Just the Planet by John M Ford, this book is one that has always made me laugh, over the years I have given it away to others and so ended up purchasing this book at least 5 times.
