Well, this is a writer's guild, after all. And at the epitome of every great Writing message board is the traditional "favorite book" thread. Here is a list of my favorite books I have ever read. They arent in order of preference, except for the first one, which is my favorite.

1. Ender's Game (and the rest of the series)
2. Harry Potter series
3. Chronicles of Narnia
4. Redwall series
5. Animorphs
6. Dracula

A few books come to mind though I must've read a million:

1. Timeline by Micheal Chricton. Really good book for those who like Sci-Fi and medieval stuff. I was enthralled.
2. Shogun - James Clavell. I love James Clavell. Awesome book.
3. Redwall series.. I read this when I was younger. Very good books.

And then of course, who didn't read Goosebumps? Heh.

I know not all mentioned were great, that's why I said 'some' ;). I guess you're still learning :D


(Don't worry, we still love you CamFuBot!)

As to your question, both... Although I do spend more time watchin TV than reading books.

Not too long ago, I saw the Count of Monte Cristo movie.


All I can say...

What a piece of ****. Read the book, don't watch the movie!

The Giver -Lowry



I love that book. That was the first book I ever read that made say, "That was a really good book" when I finished reading it.

Its also the only book I've gone out and replaced if I lost my copy. Awesome.

Make that two books I've done this with. I checked out Ender's Game Friday afternoon from the library. Began reading it later that evening; didn't stop until I couldn't stay awake.

Woke up. Took a shower and continued reading until I finished it. Awesome book. Went out and bought it and the sequel, Speaker for the Dead, when I went to return it to the library.

Now you know why I love it so much. ^_^

I own the entire series...Ender's Game, Speaker for the Dead, Xenocide, and Children of the Mind.

I have also read the "parallel" series. Ender's Shadow, Shadow of the Hegemon, and Shadow Puppets. The fourth book in the Shadow series, "Shadow of the Giant" has yet to be released.
