favorite book

mine is A Confederacy of Dunces. What is yours???

I don't really have a favorite...

I rather enjoy King's writings. C.S. Lewis is entertaining as well.

Ooo. That is a good one. But too depressing to be my favorite.

I can't name just one book, but I like everything by **** Francis or Carl Hiassen for a good beach read.

Wuthering Heights, because I am a girl.

Anything by P.J. O'Rourke because he is so funny, and he is smart.

Atlas Shrugged because I am smart.

I am not very smart so at first i thought "bored" was a typo but it's really a book!!! Count me in. going to my LBS (local book store, not a chain) and getting a copy.... let ya know how it goes..

nice... Aren't we in a constant state of war now?? I think we are headed towards a "Brave New World" next....

Wow, I am just starting to read the stuff I SHOULD have read during High school. Not too sure I want to revisit the Heights... Way too smart for me.. After all, it's in ENGLISH. I dig P.J. though. gotta love a cynic...

Hmmm...

Lord of the Rings

Wrinkle in Time

Favorite authors:
Bernard Cornwall, CS Forrester, Patrick O'Brien, Steven Pressman.

Best ski trainer reads:
Steven Pressman-Men hacking away at each other in the Mediterranean sun with swords and spears and wading in gore in their bare feet makes a ski trainer suddenly not so bad.

As a child: Where the Red Fern Grows

As an adult: Pride and Prejudice

Yeah - I think George Orwell was a very insightful writer about the human condition and 1984 exemplifies his ability to read human behaviour well.
I like most of Orwells stuff.

I also like John LeCarre too.

But most of my reading is non-faction variety.
