Most favorite book of all time has to be "Brave New World" by Aldous Huxley. I love how through it you can see what society really is. I especially like the term from it the "noble savage" with the main character John. This book makes me see what society really is like, and fills me full of an indescribable energy. If you haven't read it, I would highly recommend it.

You definitely should, you shan't be disappointed. It is set in the future, and everything seems a little weird at first, but once you make the connections, it will all sink in.

When you find a book like that, you just KNOW that you're gonna love it. Though, what I said is sort of redundant :P.

Darn! I can't pick! I'm a mad-crazy reader and I usually finish 2-3 books a week. I typically enjoy high-fantasy stories. I rarely re-read books, but when I do it's probably cause I really loved the book the first time and a lot of time has passed since I last read it. One of my favorite books is "The Last Unicorn" by Peter S. Beagle. I'm a bit of a unicorn freak, and there are very few books that actually focus on unicorns, so "The Last Unicorn" is one of my favorite reads.

That's really the reason that I like high fantasy too. I like getting lost in a whole new world with new dangers, new creatures, new adventures, and new heros. I'll read other book, but the one that I truly love are the ones that really take that leap in creativity and build an entirely new place.

I really like fantasy too! There are just so many appealing books out there, that I can't choose either. I tend to like books more where I can just be sucked in to a different world and experience the events there.

Well... I like romance novels with religious contents. I am Indonesian so I like Indonesian novels like "Ayat-ayat Cinta" and "Ketika Cinta Bertasbih". Both novels are written Habiburrahman El Shirazy.
