I would have to say my favorite series is the Warrior series by Erin Hunter. I also enjoy Stephen King's Dark Tower Series.

My favorite series.....hmmm....that's actually very tough, especially when I buy the books I like and have a mini fantasy library in my room. So I guess I list more specifically series here because there are just too many individual books that I like.
-Harry Potter by J.K. Rowling
-Twilight series by Stephenie Meyer
-Twelve Houses series by Sharon Shin
-Artemis Fowl series by Eoin(?) Cowlfer
-Pern saga by Anne McCaffery
-The Elenium and Tamuli series by David Eddings

There's a whole bunch of others but I don't know the names of the series and as I stated I don't feel like typing out each individual title.

I could sooner pick a star in the heavens, than a favorite book (well. that may be a bit of a hyperbole). I really like Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy, Jane Eyre, and Sabriel. It really depends on my moods and what I'm looking for in a book.

When I was younger I used to read so much and a novel I remember specifically was Stargirl by Jerri Spinelli. It was the first book that made me cry... tears rolled down my cheeks. I've read several times afterwards, but that first read, for some reason had a great impact... I won't forget... I remember closing the last page, lying in my bed, staring at the ceiling crying

o.o

It was a great book..but I hated the sequel =( it ruined it... I wouldn't call it my favorite book. I don't have a favorite book, but there are really some great ones out there. =D

I'm a fantasy person but my favorite is actually Battle Royale by Koushun Takami. Yes if you seen or heard of that movie, it was originally a book. Although I am loving Romance of the Three Kingdoms right now.

After years of reading mainstream stuff, I'm getting into the classics and unknown books now.

It's so hard to choose a favorite, but I found mine a few years ago; It's Kind of a Funny Story by Ned Vizzini. I love everything by that author. :heart:
It's a pretty long book, but I finished it in one day, because I was hooked. I pulled an all-nighter. ;)

My favorite actual book is the Harry Potter series. I still need to read the last one. Ah well, I'll read it before the last movie comes out, for sure. I'm also reading Vampire Knight, which is fantastic. It's a comic book, though. Still a book. :P

Unwind by Neal Shusterman.
This is an amazing book, it is extremely well written!!! And simply awesome. It deals with the abortion war and is a modern day Modest Proposal. It is a world in which abortion is illegal but parents can retroactively abort their children from the ages of 13-18 through a process called unwinding. Unwinding is the systematic dismemberant of teenagers and their body parts are used in organ donations. This book is one fo the best written books i have ever read and I recommend it highly to anyone and I will warn it is mildly disturbing but it's good and that is what counts.

Also 1984 by George Orwell. This book is a classic and I believe everyone should read it at least once.

My favoirte book is a series. Its the Dark Series by Christine Feehan. Its is so well written and once you open a book you won't be able to put it down. I actually read 4 of her books in two days. I love them because when you start reading there is so much detail that you can just envison the world and vampires that she is talking about. I have always loved a book that can just make me think I am right there in it.

My favorite book of all time is also a series. the "His Dark Materials" trilogy by Philip Pullman. It consists of "the Golden Compass"(originally titled the Northern Lights) "the Subtle Knife" and "the Amber Spyglass"

They made a movie based on the first book and if you've seen it and not read the book please go read the book its indescribably better.

Good Omens by Terry Pratchett and Neil Gaiman :3
Neverwhere is a close second. I'm a bit of a fan of Mr. Gaiman.

Oh lord I have a million favourite books, but my ultimate one would be The Book Thief by Markus Zusak. I recommend it to anyone who loves a good tear-jerker, WWII novel. It's amazing. It blew my mind away. I was bawling my eyes out through the last three chapters of the book and I barely cry.

It is well written, the characters are amazing and the entire story is in Death's point of view. Not the typical "Grim Reaper" thing people seem to image Death as, but the true, real, form of Death. Just... Death. Hard to explain. He's not really a person or a thing. He's just death. I love how Zusak described it, how the story played out.

Here's the description from the back of the book (since if I write a summary I'll spoil the ending and all the good juicy parts, haha)...


It is 1939. Nazi Germany. The country is holding its breath.
Death has never been busier, and will become busier still.


By her brother's graveside, Liesel Meminger's life is changed when she picks up a single object, partially hidden in the snow. It is
The Grave Digger's Handbook, left there by accident, and it is her first act of book thievery. So begins a love affair with books and words, as Liesel, with the help of her accordion playing foster father, learns to read. Soon she is stealing books from Nazi book burnings, the mayor's wife's library, wherever there are books to be found.
But these are dangerous times. When Liesel's foster family hides a Jew in their basement, Liesel's world is both opened up and closed down.


A must read. Seriously, go and at least try it out.

My favorite book or i guess short story is the black cat by poe. this story is absolutley amazing I mean I like his other works but the black cat is my favorite, to be honest i am a bit of a writer. i a the missouri champ of greatest short story. and i get all my inspiration from edgar allen poe. there is not a book that he wrote that i do not adore. there is no word he had typed and no phrase that he write that i do not love. i wish one day to be as successful has he. i try to write as well but i find it hard to write and know that at one time in this countrys great history that there survived a man who breathed a breath of air on this gods earth that could write so beautifully. i mean all men and women from that time could write like that because that was the way they were taught and that was what they learned and this is the world that they lived in but i see a time in which people could write like that again. i feel that education is corrupt and kids are not learning as much. we need to become motivated and become the world that we were before there was lazy people. i see greatness in this world i know it is out there but as ghandi said "we must become the change we wish to see" and he was correct and we all can be famous with whatever we wish to be if we only try and if we only give forth the effort. we are powerful and we are a strong country and we will look up one day and be whoever we are. and if we are successful that we will cry with joy and if we are not than we will cry with pain. we are strong and we hold in our hand the will we hold in our hand the map that shows us how to get there but the truth is we must hold the constitution.
