Your favourite book of all time?

I love reading. This is a tough question. It is hard to determine my favorite book of all time. There are so many great books in so many different genres. For nostalgia, history, and southern fiction I like Huckleberry Finn - controversial, I know, but it can be read and taught to demonstrate how things were and contrast them with how things should be between the races. It is also deeply psychological in nature, and just a good story. I love Catherine Coulter's FBI series. I love Charles Dickens, A Tale of Two Cities. I just finished Picoult - House Rules. Great book. It seems like when I'm reading a book or have just finished one it is usually the best. All I know is that one day I would like to be a favorite novalist. It seems like I like more drama, action adventure than the book you have listed, but then one can't tell a reader by one book. Another example: I loved The Kite Flyer and A Thousand Splendind Suns though both were profoundly heart-breaking at times.

A book becomes my favorite once its written by my favorite author who is James Paterson and I never miss a single opportunity present to me to read the book by him so his every books are my favorite and I can read then again and again.

It's so hard to choose just one book. I read so much and there are so many good ones. I guess if I had to choose, I would say "Midnight" by Dean Koontz. It's one of those books that I can re-read tons of times and still love it and find it interesting. Currently, I'm really loving Kay Hooper's 'Biship/SCU' series.

mine would be 'the little prince'. i've read this over and over again and i do not get tired of it. i love the simplicity of the story, yet it has a great depth to it. i even have the french version of it, even though i can't speak french ;)

i'm totally in to the science fiction fantasy that we all know as starwars. it's such a cool story. and it moves way beyond just books and movies. the storyline is a linear one with all the necessary bits to make it as exciting as possible. but the way George Lucas builds on his stories and creates little universe's and sub-universe's is just amazing. i've got about 120 starwars novels now..

I have only really started reafing about 4 years ago, but now read every night, and I have to say that, 'To kill a mockingbird' is my favorite book. I just think it's a nice,easy leisurely read.

i guess it would have to be the Bible, then a book called 'bird by bird' by anne lamot, several craft books and history books that i havent got the title of at the top of my head.

Oh darn it. I wish people would stop asking this question, because I really can't pick! I'm a mad-crazy avid reader and I typically finish 2-3 books in a week. I rarely re-read books even though there are lots that I love. There's just so many new stuff for me to read! I don't want to miss out on it all. But then, I'm never really sure what my favorite book is. The few that I've read more than once are This Present Darkness by Frank Peretti, Twilight by Stephenie Meyer, Ella Enchanted by Gail Carson Levine, and The Little White Horse by Elizabeth Goudge.

Reading is my big hobby, I really love books and I read almost everything. But my favourit book is the Holy Scriptures (the Bible). It is the only one I repeat reading it. There are so many points to learn and I always learn something new every time I read it.

Jane Austin is a great choice indeed.I also love Pride and Prejudice but since I read The picture of Dorian Grey there is nothing that may influence me so hard.It shows in great details what we should or shouldn't do and be,how life treats different acts of different people and many other important things that make us consider all our acts.

Mine is Rebecca by Daphne du Maurier

hey karen im not a huge reader and have only read around 3 books since i was 5ish and my favourite has to be the devil wears prada. i seen it in the co-op when i was with my mum when i was 14 and i liked the look of the cover and my mum said i'd probably never read it (she was probably right). but i wanted to prove her wrong and read the whole thing before the movie came out and i adored it, it was a pretty long book but it compelled me to read it. i watched the movie not long after and was disapointed as i feel it missed out some very important aspects of the book. i've bought the gossip girl series of books on amazon, 6 of them came but the first one is missing so i can't read until it's here so i'm looking forward to that :)

Boys Life by Robert Mccammon A comming of age novel set in the deep south with history and fantasycoupled with a boys immagination a wonderful read

My favorite book is "Master and Margarita" by Michail Bulgakov. It is Russian book. It is really amazing! When you start reading it, it seems like fantastic, unreal, but then you understand that it is a real life, but with some fantastic elements.
