    My favorite book has to be right now Maximum Ride. Though that is RIGHT now. I can never really decide because I love all my books.

    My favorite authors are James Patterson and Jonathan Stroud. :D

    Oh! And my favorite kind of book is fantasy!

    I am a die hard Science Fiction and Fantasy Fan

    The book that started this trend was "The Hobbit", the precursor to the "Lord of the Rings" trilogy by JRR Tolkien.

    I would say that "Foundation" by Issac Assimov is up there as favorite Sci-Fi novel.

    I read for enjoyment and relaxation, so after exhausting most Sci-Fi, I now read a lot of Westerns. In that Genre you cannot beat "The Sacketts" or anything else by Louis Lamour.

    But if I had to pick one book as my favorite it would be

    "The Firm" by John Grisham.

    Source(s): Sci-Fi Fan since the 70's

    I can't pick a favorite book, because I have multiples faves by the same author. I love Artemis Fowl, Artemis Fowl: The Arctic Incident, Artemis Fowl: The Eternity Code, Artemis Fowl: The Opal Deception (my favorite series, obviously; however, I detested Artemis Fowl: The Lost Colony), and The Wish List, all by Eoin Colfer.

    My favorite book is The Virgin Suicides by Jefferey Eugenides, abut five sisters who kill themselves. It is really a modern black comedy, very good. My favorite author is Amy Tan, who writes alot about her assimilation into the American culture with fictional characters. I can relate to her stories since I am an immigrant myself. her writing is truly powerful.

    Denise Hildreth- She wrote Savannah from Savannah, Savannah Comes Undone, and Savannah By The Sea. It is a great triology, sweet and funny. An easy fast read.

    The entire Vampire Chronicles by Anne Rice. I like books that can create a whole new world for you that you miss when you're not in it.
