What is your favorite book?

[Ebenum Reipublicae]

There are a couple good ones, but, since I don't read much, I can't make a list. My all-time favorite, so far, is Elephant Run. I can't remember who the author is, though

[Pragia]

Really good question, I love Percy Jackson and the Olympians when I was in 7th grade, The Titan's Curse in preticular, but I'm also a huge Tom Clancy fan (rainbow 6 was probably best book I singularly read, but PJO as a series was amazing)

[Allied states of Gregland]

The god delusion.

[The BranRiech]

Warbirds: Diary of an unknown aviator.

T'is a journal kept by an American fighter pilot in World war 1 up until his death in 1918, his friend published it in the 20's.

[Gideus]

Robert E. Howard's Solomon Kane. I have the collection of all the various writings about Solomon Kane and that man is more of a badass than Conan the Barbarian, the character that Howard got famous for.

However, Grandpa's Ghost Stories by James Flora will always hold a special place in my heart. When I was younger, maybe 6-8 (8-10 years ago), we had a paper back copy. That was one of my favorite things ever. Recently, my father managed to get his hands on a copy of it, hardback, and avoid the collector-esque price that most copies run. It's in near mint condition. My two and a half year old brother is going to have an awesome childhood.

Oh, and how could I forget?

Dan Simmons' The Hyperion Cantos, a four-book series that is fucking AMAZING.

[Jedoria]

Fahrenheit 451, by Ray Bradbury.

[BrightonBurg]

Dune.

Frank Herbert.

[BrightonBurg]

Lord of the Rings by J.R.R. Tolkien

Always a good choice..

[Holoman]

My all time favorite is the Spinward Fringe series. They're a bunch of books all around 1,000 pages and very much sci-fi with organizations owning private forces and entire worlds.

[Monlyth]

"Dead Path" by Stephen Irwin. Although he's Australian, the Irwin I'm referring to is not a crocodile hunter.


"Interview with A Vampire" by Anne Rice was also an amazing read.

[Corrian]

IDK.

Either, the Tintin series, Walk Two Moons, or Bridge to Terabithia.
This may change in the future.

Bridge to Terabithia was a good book, but to my surprise, I liked the movie better then the book. Not common. I dunno, I just felt something more with the movie.

As my favorite goes, I would probably go with A Game of Thrones by George R.R. Martin at the moment. Haven't read any of the other books of the series yet. I don't really read a whole lot, considering this was the last book I finished which I started like, 8 months ago. I did however read a big chunk of The Thief Lord

Honorable mentions is the His Dark Materials series (The Golden Compass, The Subtle Knife, and The Amber Spyglass), by Philip Pullman. That was probably my favorite book series before A Song of Ice and Fire came into my acknowledgement.

I think some of you that like Lord of the Rings (I've yet to read that) might enjoy A Song of Ice and Fire series. It's another fantasy epic (Not as fantasy as Lord of the Rings, I don't think), though probably darker and grittier then Lord of the Rings. And much larger, considering the smallest book is like, 800 pages long.

[Manahakatouki]

Watership Down because of it's personal reasons...

It's one of the first books I read by myself, and my dad gave it to me at a young age, telling me he read it as a teenager...

I'm sure I've read better books, but it just brings back such great memories. I don't remember a lot about my childhood, but I remember everything about the first time I read that book, from the breaks, the parts I didn't understand, and how I imagined every single character, their voice, and setting...

To me, it's my favourite book...

[Prussia-Steinbach]

Not sure I have a favourite. However, these are some I like...

- The Prince
- The Doctrine of Fascism
- On War
- The Great Santini
- The Lords of Discipline
- 1812
- The Rise and Fall of the Confederate Government
- Iron Kingdom
- With Lee in Virginia
- Winning His Spurs
- Bonnie Prince Charlie

Right off the top of my head.

[Castille de Italia]

I've got a list...

1.) To Kill a Mockingbird by Harper Lee
2.) Uncle Tom's Cabin by Harriet Beecher Stowe
3.) The Outsiders by S.E. Hinton
4.) The Catcher in the Rye by J.D. Salinger
5.) The Phantom Tollbooth by Norton Juster
6.) The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn by Mark Twain
7.) The Great Gatsby by F. Scott Fitzgerald
8.) How The West Was Won by Louis Sachar
9.) Lord of the Flies by William Golding
10.) The Most Dangerous Game by Richard Connell

Had to update and add four more books (even though the last is a short story), as more came to mind. A lot of these are well-known as the best works of literature in American History. These are compiled as my top ten favorite stories in literature. Also, I'm not seeing a lot of these names, and I'm wondering why. Maybe I'm just old?

[Saarthal]

The BFG by Roald Dahl

Well, I haven't read a single one....but I am really lacking in my book reading, so yeah. I'm open to all types of books (except maybe ones that are straightforward romance stories with nothing else to them except that. Just...so dull and not that exciting to me), movies, shows, games, and so on, so I'm willing to try all of those at some point.

[The New Sea Territory]

Saving Zasha. Straight up amazing, yet simple.

If not that then, Metro 2033 and Warriors: The Darkest Hour.

All great childhood memories.

The only thing that discourages me to read Game of Thrones is I have heard that Martin commits genocide to his beloved characters every book.

[The New Sea Territory]

The BFG by Roald Dahl

A great one. Very funny, but good.

[United Koryo]

Top 100 of the books I read is:

Escape from Camp 14 by Blaine Harden

[The New Sea Territory]

Oh, Mein Kampf is actually a good read.

[The Serbian Empire]

I am such a nerd, my favorite is A Random Walk On Wall Street by Burton G. Malkiel. I really need to stop researching economics.

[Gratislavia]

Either The Balkans by Misha Gleny or Crime and Punishment by Fyodor Dostoevsky.

[Silician]

I love Dan Brown books. My favorite is probably Angels and Demons.

[Albeland]

Paper Towns by John Green. A fantastically funny novel, interlaced with a sad, sad ending that made me cry.
