I decided that one flew over the cuckoos nest is the best

*sigh* It's so lonely being a Dune fan...I have yet to find another on this site. Anyway, Dune (by Frank Herbert) is definitely my favorite. But the first four of the *classic* (it's important to specify that, because Brian Herbert [Frank's son] and Kevin J. Anderson completely mutilated Dune with their prequels) are the uber-fantastic ones. I really can't pick a favorite out of them.

So that's my two cents: Dune, Dune Messiah, Children of Dune, and God Emperor of Dune.

Hey oneeyedunicornhunter,

You're not alone in being a Dune fan. I have only read Dune, Dune Messiah, and Children of Dune, but I really did enjoy all of them. While they're not my favourite books of all time, I definitely feel that they are worth noting as some of the great classic Science Fiction books.

Have a good one!

stranger in a strange land by heinlind..... READ IT!!!

and i can't believe im about to say it please don't shoot me and please don't mock me ahhhh i almost cant do it... twilight series


(runs for cover)

Little Women, louisa may alcot

1984 didn't do much for me... sorry all you fans

the uglies series and


last but not least


zen and the art of motorcycle maintnance (persig) and the power of one( some guy)

I like the Sword of Truth series, but I've only read the first two books. I love it that they're loooong. I'll have to check out these other books. I like Little Women, too. I like the Uglies series, but I'll have to read 1984. I like the Twilight series, as well, but not as much as Sword of Truth. The first book is Wizard's First Rule if anyone would like to read it.

My favourite books would have to be 'Interview with the Vampire' By Ann Rice and I also really enjoyed 'The Book Theif' by Marcus Zusak.

I found 'Interview with the Vampire' spectacular and beautifly written. Ann Rice certainly is an amazing author. The rest of the Vampire Chronicles were alright but the first I would have to say was the best. Louie had amazing character and had views unimagined. It covered things that many writers wouldn't do and you could tell Ann Rice wasn't afraid of telling her view of the vampires. It has the traditional vampire feel to it and Twilight seems like nothing compared to this story. I really do recommend it a lot.

And 'The Book Theif' was just an awesome read and had a very enjoyable plot line.

And The Book Thief (Marcus Zusak) and The Lord of the Rings (Tolkien), of course.

Oh my gosh! You have the exact same favorite books as me! Like no one at my school has heard of the first two and it's sooooo depressing.

Lol, it's the same for me.

They are so underrated, which is a shame, really.

Ha, oh my god, I love like all the ones mentioned...

1984, Book Thief (this book is amazing) and I really really love the A Great and Terrible Beauty Series...this is one of the only series I've read that actually invokes fear and chills me, literally...beautifully written, with pungent and deep human emotions. I also really love Harry Potter and the Hunger Games, as well as one called The New Policeman.

I love the Gemma Doyle Trilogy ^^.

I love the Gemma Doyle trilogy, too.

I love them, too!

Wuthering Heights of course
What can I say... Emily Bronte is my deity
I adore her.
Gosh, there's so many
Villette by Charlotte Bronte
-Hardly anyone likes it as much as Jane Eyre but I adore it

I'm kind of a complete nerd. I adore philosophers and their books and I'm proud to admit that I'm one of the few people (definitely of my age) that actually understand the theories involved

I adore Jung his 'autobiography/biography' is great.
No, actually I shall not go into philosophers or you shall grow bored of my vast lists.

Tess of The D'Urbervilles

Wuthering Heights

Tailchaser's Song ftw! This book is awesome; it's my favorite in the feline fantasy tradition.

Les Miserables by Victor Hugo. I love the story. I love how he portrays society and certain subject such as justice and morality. I love his characters. His characters are masterpieces already... Especially Enjolras and Javert(though he's utterly insane with justice).

Other books I'm in love with

1. The Chronicles of Prydain by Lloyd Alexander
2. Persuasion by Jane Austen
3. Pride and Prejudice by Jane Austen
4. A Connecticut Yankee in King Arthur's Court by Mark Twain
5. Breakfast at Tiffany's by Truman Capote

I love the Classics. But I'm into fantasy stuff as well and the Chronicles of Prydain is my fave fantasy series. along with Narnia.

Kirsten! I will so totally kill you for saying nobody likes Jane Eyre. It's one of the best books ever written!

A fellow Les Miserables fan. At last. I like reading about Eponine. She's cool. :p

Jane Austen is brilliant. As is JK Rowling.

Fave books would include (not in that order and excepting the aforementioned!):
1. The Elijah Baley Series - Isaac Asimov
2. Foundation Series - Isaac Asimov
3. The Complete Works Of William Shakespeare, which I have just bought for roughly $5.50. USD.
4. The Phantom of The Opera - Gaston Leroux (we have to read a lousy abridged version for school)
5. Kurt Vonnegut stuff.

There're loads more, but I can't think of any at the moment. So yeah, that'll be all for now.
