Favorite Book?

[VenusWasAFlytrap]

Trainspotting by Irvine Welsh and Watership Down by Richard Adams.

Very different I know, but also both very good.

[crazycanuck]

Way too many...umm..

 

Catcher in the Rye is always nice.

I love almost anything by Nick Hornby, Douglas Coupland, Kurt Vonnegut, Hunter S. Thompson, George Orwell.

There's a book about the modern class systems whose title I forgot but that was really good.

The Crying of Lot 49 keeps getting better every time I read it.

[brandon]

Till We Have Faces by C.S. Lewis is a pretty cool book.

 

I read a lot of science fiction and fantasy and you know, *those sorts* of things... enjoy many but wouldn't pin any of them as being my all-time or close-to-all-time favourite.

The Autobiography of Malcolm X

 

The book was written in collaboration with Alex Haley, the author of ROOTS and a friend of Malcolm's. At times it's hard to believe that this was someone's life. The book offers an incredible amount of insight to the man he was and the man he was striving to be.

Dan Brown-Angels and Demons (read this book BEFORE the Da Vinci Code)

John Grisham-The Client

[static]

Angels and Demons seemed too much like a movie. it was well done and all and i found it entertaining, but it would make a much better script. I havent read any of Brown's other books, so i couldn't say whether he'd overall make a better scriptwriter. But that particular book was very hollywood.

I'm a huge Stephen King fan, so I'm gonna go with the Dark Tower series, The Stand, and Green Mile.

 

Some other awesome books:

 

David Sedaris-Me Talk Pretty One Day (Sedaris is brilliant, he will make you laugh out loud more than any other author I've encountered)

 

Richard Bach-Illusions (just a beautiful and concise story)

[manfromharoldwood]

michael cunningham - flesh and blood

 

i can only hope that i write something so profound one day.

[armchaircynic]

Yeah, I've read too many books to pick just one.. Some of my favorites are Fight Club, and Harry Potter. Complete opposites, but whatever.

[The_Stooge]

Of Mice and Men

The Complete Stories by Flannery O

[Shiri]

I recently read Moon Palace by Paul Auster and liked it a lot. Any other Paul Auster fans? Any recommendations for other books of his?

[squall17]

in the skin of a lion, by ondaatje

[garsk]

How to be Canadian, (even if your already one) by Will Ferguson and his brother Ian Ferguson. it explains how to; talk like canadians, speak like canadians, dress, eat, vote, have sex like, drink, play sports, etc etc, all in an "educational" way. one of canada's better writters.

[driftinginfluence]

Hey Nostradamus! by Copeland, hands down, i love that book, i've read it a gazillion times.

[sonicspeed05]

The lion the witch and the wardrobe just made a movie go see it it was good but excellent book!

the story of b - daniel quinn

[radio_bomb]

The Thief Of Always-Clive Barker

and The Dark Tower series by Stephen King

[WalrusMeat]

The Embrace- Aphrodite Jones

[beautiful_midnight]

I hated Brave New World. And I have yet to get around to reading any Kurt Vonnegut. My favourite book ever, besides At Last There Is Nothing Left to Say, is definitely Kane and Abel by Jeffrey Archer. It is a great story, and has a fantastic ending.

[Pixie-elf]

Wizard's First Rule by Terry Goodkind.

 

I love that book dearly. <3

[cleric9999]

the book of revelations.

i'm trying to predict when the end of the world will be.
