All the President's Men by Bob Woodward and Carl Bernstein
Although this is a non-fiction book, I found this book fascinating and would have liked to be behind the scenes with the reporters and all the characters. You know what they say....truth is stranger than fiction :)

The Harry Potter Series. It's just so full of everything - family, friendship, fantasy. And Charlie and the Chocolate Factory for a lifetime supply of sweets. :D

His Dark Materials series by Philip Pullman. I would love to see what my daemon might be and to be able to see other people's as well.

I've wanted to get into The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo and The Fellowship of The Ring but somehow I never do get around to read them.

I would definitely love to go in the Harry Potter books. To tour Hogwarts, Diagon Alley, and Hogsmead would be priceless!

For me, I wanted to be a part of Diane Duane's Wizard series. I was first exposed to it through the first book which was Support Your Local Wizard. I also wanted to be a part of Jean Craighead George's books, any of them. My all time favorite of hers was Hook a Fish, Catch a Mountain.

The Land of Stories by Chris Colfer is literally a book about two kids who are teleported through their grandmothers old story book into a world where fairy tails are all real. I would love that.
So many books to read, so little time..

The Lord of the Rings would be my first choice. And even though I wouldn't consider the Harry Potter series one of my favorite series, I absolutely love the world that Rowling created. To completely immersed in a world full of magic and mystical creatures is my dream.

This is a hard one. I've wanted to go into so many books. I'd have to say Eragon though because I would love to be able to ride a dragon. I'd probably be running around screaming half the time but it would still be awesome.

When I was younger, I wanted the world of Harry Potter and Lord of the Rings to combine so I could live in it.
