What's your favourite book and why?

Hi, thanks for responding, I think Sidney Sheldon is a really good writer. I must say that I have only read one of his novels..Windmill of the God and I couldn't put it down until finished so I guess you should have real fun reading:-)

When I was younger, I would read Sidney Sheldon starting with "The Other Side of Midnight" I was truly saddened that he passed away just this past month at the age of 89. He was a gifted writer and was also into screenwriting particularly the film, "The Bachelor and the Bobbysocker(1947)" with Cary Grant and Shirley Temple, and the television show, "I Dream of Jeannie". Yep, he will definitely be missed.

Hi, thanks for responding. I am in the process of reading the bible myself. I am finding it quite interesting really and quite controversial in certain respects, but you are right it can provide many answers to the questions we seek to answer.

Thanks for responding. I will always say it when we read a book and we find some appreciation in the message and how it was written. Keep reading:-)

Thanks for responding. Magazines and e-books are ok, it's still reading. I read only one Sydney Sheldon book myself..Windmill of the Gods..I really liked it. Continue to read.

Thanks for responding. Only one you have read, you need to do some more reading...lol! I guess you are really not into books but I hope you will try to read another one:-)

Hi, thanks for responding. I have not read Dr. Suess but I have heard the name a few times, even if it's children books, as long as you enjoy it that's good.

Thanks for responding, I think there are some really great writers out there who write books that stay in our mind for many years. It is usually the ones that teaches you something that does really. Things Fall Apart also taught the value of looking at situations in context, sometimes we can't always judge someone else's world within our own.

Thanks for responding. Even though you don't like to read much you do have a favourite -- reading is so much fun, not to mention the knowledge you can gain from it.
