Its very difficult to choose favourites especially since I've read so many amazing books. For me asking me my favorite book is kinda like asking a mother who their favorite child is, it just can't be done.

I actually have two favorite books. The first one is The Noticer by Andy Andrews. The second would have to be Fahrenheit 451 by Ray Bradbury. I probably favor say more books but these I enjoy reading over and over.

This is very much a mood thing for me, but my first and all time favorite is 1984. I like a lot of Stephen King. A book I have read a few times that no one else has heard of is Micheal Kimbles Undone. My favorite new author is Martin Hengst, his The Last Swordmage Trilogy is awesome.

Latest Review: "Damn Females on the Lawn" by Rachel Hurd

Tough question. Up at the top are Bleak House and David Copperfield by Dickens. East of Eden (Steinbeck) too. Also Moby Dick by Melville.

I have several favorites such as The Human Comedy by William Saroyan, Cold Sassy Tree by Olive Ann Burns, and just about any book by Richard Paul Evans. All of these books are about people who have close bounds with their families and/or communities.

I'd say... either "The Book Thief", "Romeo and Juliet" or "House of Hades", all of them are fantastic and just- very close to my heart.

I think my favorite book, which is also the same one that I could reread over and over again, would have to be Anne Rice's The Vampire Armand. I think it's possibly one of the most beautiful books I've ever read.

I got asked this question a lot and then I would just be like "I really like this book.. Oh, but I also like this one" so I just decided that I cannot have a favorite book. I just could think of a lot of books I really enjoyed and got so hooked with that I could not choose one. I don't think I could narrow it down to one favorite, that would be impossible for me.

I read constantly so it is very hard to narrow it down, but I've narrowed it down to two: Jane Eyre by Charlotte Bronte and Exit the Actress by Priya Parmar. Jane Eyre is one of my favorites because of her personality in that particular time period: women were not supposed to be as headstrong and independent as she was. Exit the Actress was written in a way that I'm not used to; the story was told through playbills, letters, newspaper articles, diary entries, and so on. The way it was told combined with the addictive storyline is why the book has stuck in my mind.
