What's your favorite BOOK?
I'm starting my own summer reading list...because I don't have anything for school finally...because I'm headin' off to college this fall.
SO
please suggestions?
what are some good reads? any book change your life? Or how you viewed it? Or did anything just entertain the hell out of you?
I'm pretty open minded and I love reading anything, any genre...so SUGGESTIONS PLEASE!

Serious readers cannot answer this question. It requires a more specific prompt.

My favourite books that I have read recently include...

Jonathan Strange & Mr. Norrell
by Susanna Clarke

American Gods
by Neil Gaiman

Hairstyles of the Damned
by Joe Meno

I have to say, though, I don't read much contemporary fiction. I prefer the classics, usually.
stickyricegirl
stickyricegirl on Jun 05 '07 at 2:55pm
i agree.
classics all the way.
i read both...but the classics leave you with something...and most comtemporary stuff just kinda...ends.

Yeah. Don DeLilo is good, though.

I would suggest some of John Gardner's short fiction, like, "The Art of Living and Other Stories."

A Fine Balance is awesome -- incredibly well-crafted. It's also one of the most emotionally disruptive books I've ever read.
