I think I h ave read Wuthering Heights by Emily Bronte the most number of times...I love the authors narration, her diction, the detail in the setting and most of all the characterisation of Heathcliff. The love story between Catherine n Heathcliff is for ages...and the powerful lines are etched in my memory forever.

I I liked reading books when I was young because it transported me to different times , acquainted me with varied cultures and allowed me to meet and empathize with an array of memorable characters. It was fun to imagine a Dragon or be caught in a magical world to solve a mystery.

Growing up I have learnt to appreciate a book beyond the plot and characters....I now relish the language and the unwrapping if it's hidden imagery and their connotations.These days, what is implied and suggested in the book keep me more intrigued and fascinated.

I think reading is the best hobby one could have.

There are so many elements in this series that I find it easy to return to the world of Roland and his Ka-tet, there’s a balance between the gore and friendship and love that I find most enjoyable.

If I wanted to de-stress really bad, I go back to my childhood reading and open my Hardy Boys series from my bookshelf.

I usually pick up one of Janet Evanovich's books. Her main character, Stephanie Plum, is a 125 lb. 5'5" bounty hunter. She works for her cousin Vinny, bringing in people who don't show up in court at the appointed hour. These books are a hilarious mix of mystery, adventure, and general goofiness. My favorite character is Stephanie's Grandma Masur, who wants to be a bounty hunter too. Grandma's favorite pastime is going to all the funerals around town, where she generally wreaks havoc during the visitations.

And I thought I was the only one that did this! Hardy Boys, Nancy Drew, and Dorothy Lyons' horse series Golden Sovereign, Silver Birch, etc.

At least once a year, I go to my first Nora Roberts books, the Circle trilogy. Those are Morrigan's Cross, Dance of the Gods, and The Valley of Silence. I also try to reread Dracula every October.

Eidon's Light, the first installment of the Guardian King Series by Karen Hancock.
Amazing book, with a wonderful world, a great plot and many truths hidden within the characters and the overall topic. I love this book so much.
Another book I reread is The Magician's Nephew by C.S. Lewis. It truly is magical and beautiful and not just a lesson/story for children but much more, which you only realize upon rereading it as an adult.

I keep going back to Kestrel by Lloyd Alexander. Short book with a powerful message about the emotional cost of war.

I'd say the first book in The Hunger Games series. Although I started really liking to read when I read the Percy Jackson series, The Hunger Games are what dug me deeper into being an active reader.

Either Harry Potter when I'm feeling particularly childish and want an easy read. Anything by Christopher Moore when I need a laugh, I especially love Secondhand Souls because of the character Sophie. When I want to feel smart and accidentally learn something without a lecture, I dig out almost anything by James Rollins especially his Sigma Force Series.
