I have many favourites, and the list keeps on growing. In recent months I've added two more favourites to my list. These are, To Kill a Mockingbird and A Thousand Splendid Suns. That doesn't mean that my other favourites drop down a peg. They just move over to make some room on the shelf.

My favorite book is probably Divergent because I love Dystopian books!

My favorite book is Pride and Prejudice. This must be my favorite because its the only book that I have read more than once.

My favorite book is definitely the artemis fowl series by Eoin colfer, although i haven't finished the series (and its more than one book), i enjoy it very much. i actually didn't read artemis fowl until maybe high school i believe, and i love all books i read (that of course i pick or are recommended to me by friends) some more then others probably. i don't know what it is about the artemis fowl series that just captivates me, that series is what the harry potter series is to my friend. I know, some may think that there is no comparison to the harry potter series, and even though i didn't grow up reading artemis fowl or that it isn't a movie franchise, it is very dear to me.

My favorite book is definitely "Gone With The Wind." I love the way that it is written. Even though it is fiction I love that you can actually learn some stuff from it about the Civil War. I like that added romance in it because it makes you realize that yes that probably did happen, maybe not exactly the way that it did in the book but I am sure that similar things happened.

I can say for sure that "The Da Vinci Code" is not my favorite book.
I can say one of my favorites is "The Wizard of Oz" and "Alice in Wonderland"...years beyond its time

Who could pick just one? For awhile I was very into Divergent and Insurgent but after reading Allegiant it completely ruined the whole series for me! I loved the Disappearing Girl and I was a fan of The Perks of Being a Wallflower. I'm currently a big fan of the Addicted series by Krista Ritchie and Becca Ritchie, they're also fun to follow on fb. But as mentioned several times, my favorite book is whatever I am currently reading!

I'm not sure I have a favorite book necessarily. I have many that I love like any John Green books, Rick Riordan books or Cassandra Clare. But I don't think I can narrow it down. Right now, I'm probably forgetting so many of them!

It changes depending on my mood or what i've recently read. At the moment it's the Book Thief, so much that i had a customized pendant made by scribbelicious (a company that create gorgeous jewellery with book quotes, and some from damaged book pages) with a quote from it.

I only just read How to kill a mockingbird so that's also in my top list at the moment!

It's a long list, but lately am entranced by Dean Koontz's Odd Thomas series. Faves from that set:

I don't know that I actually have one favorite book or series, but I know that I've read Pride and Prejudice more than any other book, so I often choose that. I also have a tendency to love reading anything in the realm of the Fantasy genre. When I'm reading a book, I enjoy being thoroughly removed from my own surroundings. Period pieces work similarly, and that is another reason to love a good Jane Austen book.

My favorite book would have to Unleashed by Kristopher Reisz. It allows me to see a different take on fitting in with a group of friends and doing what you think is right
