joanofark, Where the Red Fern Grows is such an awesome book! I cried a lot though.

Im not really sure i have a favorite book..

Vette, isn't D.C. Andrews the author of Flowers in the Attic? I looked at that book and was going to buy it, but, I didn't have enough money with me at the time

Oh, that's one of mine too! I loved the book and the movie!

I love all of Peter Gent's work, especially The Franchise. I read alot of Dean Kootz too. I also enjoyed " The Lovely Bones".

I can't really think of just one, but, I love "Mountains Beyond Mountains", it's absolutely incredible. And, as for classics, I like "The Three Musketeers."

These books all sound very interesting, I am still ahving a hard time knowing what some are about!

I like "The Three Musketeers."

That is a BIG book! I could never finnish it! lol!

books ooooohhhh I love to read.
the Three Musketeers is a big book but well worth reading it is marvelous but then again anything by DUMAS is beautiful.

Favorite of all time I would have to say is "A Tale Of Two Cities" by Charles Dickens.
but there are a few close seconds....
"The Count of Monte Cristo" by Alexandre Dumas
"The Phantom Of The Opera" by Gaston Leroux
"Far From The Madding Crowd" by Thomas Hardy
"Crime and Punishment" by Fyodor Dostoevsky

I also love
Lord of the Rings, The Hobbit and The Silmarillion all by J.R.R. Tolkien
and I like The Vampire Chronicles by Anne Rice.

I just finished Wuthering Heights by Emily Bronte and really enjoyed that which I didn't think I would like and I am also reading Moby Dick by Hermann Melville which I am not enjoying in the least. Oh well I guess everyone has their own preferences.

I love to read, I have so many favorite books! A few that came to mind where

The DaVinci (sp?) Code
Harry Potter
The Lord of the Rings Trilogy (The hobbit, too)
Eregon (i just finished that, it is one of my new favorites!)

I love fantasy and mystery books.

**K9soul** · 05-27-2005, 08:06 PM

Depends on what day you ask me

. I tend to love historical fiction and some fantasy. I really enjoy Steven Lawhead's books The Pendragon Cycle (trilogy), and Byzantium. James Clavell's Shogun, Aztec by Gary Jennings (though very graphic, but an amazing novel), Here Be Dragons by Sharon Kay Penman, The Sunne in Splendor by Sharon Kay Penman, Mary Called Magdeline by Margaret George, Lonesome Dove by Larry McMurtry, The Song of Ice and Fire series (not completed yet) by George R. R. Martin, The Farseer Trilogy by Robin Hobb, Jurassic Park and The Lost World by Michael Crichton, Congo by Michael Crichton...

I could go on for awhile. I read much more than I watch TV or go to movies. I read at least 2 hours a day, sometimes 4 or 5

I just finished The Secret Life of Bees by Sue Monk Kidd.

I couldn't put it down.............beautifully written.

Also, thanks for starting this thread............I am always looking for something new to read.

I also love the book Man 'O War by Walter Farley. I just had to do a huge book report/author study on it. It was a really good book!
