Favourite Book? Favourite Author?

Very interested to see your answers.
My fav author is Charles Dickens, and I really have to think about what my fav book is.

tracerbullet on Jul 09 '09 at 1:16pm

THE BIBEL. BY GOD.

tracerbullet on Jul 09 '09 at 1:16pm

THAT WAS NOT A TYPO.

tracerbullet on Jul 09 '09 at 1:16pm

OK, MAYBE IT WAS A TYPO.

its okay brian, as long as you repent for your typo, god will forgive you.

emilymmkay on Jul 09 '09 at 1:18pm

while I can read anything by Nabokov, Atwood or Murakami and know I'll love it, my favorite book of recent years would be most definitely the Time Traveler's Wife.

Malcolm Man on Jul 09 '09 at 1:18pm

hmmmmmm...Favorite book might be Catch-22

Favorite author might be JD Salinger.

Ady bear on Jul 09 '09 at 1:19pm

Bramish on Jul 09 '09 at 1:23pm

Paul Auster - Leviathan

mike bautista on Jul 09 '09 at 1:23pm

The Catcher in the Rye.

I don't know why.

mike bautista on Jul 09 '09 at 1:24pm

And probably Vonnegut.

TheInfamousBaka on Jul 09 '09 at 1:24pm

Tad Williams and George RR Martin. They're both really amazing.

nasmo on Jul 09 '09 at 1:30pm

Catch-22 for favorite book, definitely.

Favorite author is tougher...Dave Eggers is pretty consistently great, though.

a__ on Jul 09 '09 at 2:08pm

Oryx and Crake is probably my favorite Margaret Atwood book.

1984 is in the top favorites.

Bramish on Jul 09 '09 at 2:10pm

Oryx And Crake is the only Margaret Atwood book I didn't hate.

mike is copying me! mom, make him stop!

tracerbullet on Jul 09 '09 at 2:11pm

i like whatever liz likes

Chipmnk on Jul 09 '09 at 2:14pm

The Once and Future King just because I've always been into Arthurian legend for whatever reason. It's been a foundation of my reading.

Not really sure about favorite author. I've enjoyed Faulkner just for his wandering, stream of consciousness writing style that tends to parallel how I think and write, but I don't know if I would consider him a favorite.

tracerbullet on Jul 09 '09 at 2:15pm

have you seen the show Merlin on NBC sunday nights, alvin? it's pretty mediocre, but entertaining nonetheless.

tracerbullet on Jul 09 '09 at 2:15pm

i also wanna read the once and future king

tracerbullet on Jul 09 '09 at 2:15pm

i own it but i've never read it

Torakamikaze on Jul 09 '09 at 2:17pm

Booker T

I've totally started watching that and hate myself for it.

tracerbullet on Jul 09 '09 at 2:19pm

isn't it terrible? i can't stop watching it.

although that one girl who likes arthur is totally hot.

tracerbullet on Jul 09 '09 at 2:20pm

The fact that the previews for it start with "Before there was Harry Potter, there was Merlin..." makes me not want to watch it.

tracerbullet on Jul 09 '09 at 2:25pm

this past sunday's episode pissed me off so much. the town was attacked by a griffin, and everyone was like "OH MY GOD, WHAT IS THIS STRANGE CREATURE?! I'VE NEVER SEEN SUCH A SAVAGE BEAST BEFORE!"

and i'm like "dudes. it's a fucking griffin. how do you not know this?!"

and eventually gaius looks it up in a book of legendary creatures and is like, "yo, uther, it's a griffin. it's a magical creature."

and uther's all, "a griffin?!"

and i'm like, "no fucking shit, noob. i've been saying that the entire episode!"

tracerbullet on Jul 09 '09 at 2:25pm

i partly watch it because anthony head is in it and he was giles in buffy and i love buffy

Torakamikaze on Jul 09 '09 at 2:29pm

All about me

I love anything associated with indie rock and dance my ass off to pop-punk. nuff said. actually I could go on for awhile about my obsessions about tap dancing to 80's music... and dark comedies...and classic literature....
