My personal favorite is The Bluest Eye by Toni Morrison, but I think The Great Gatsby is the best book ever written.

Add me to the list of fans of A Prayer For Owen Meany. I re-read it every few years. Simply the best book I've come across in my 43 years on earth. (soon to be 44!) It is spiritual without being religeous, has a great mystery, fantastically painted characters, warmth, sex and a lot of humour. I highly recommend it to anyone who hasn't read it yet.


"I don't really get the ending,all i can go with is when after several months,Judith saw Pat sang,and later she kissed him on the toilet,after that the story back to where Pat went down from the stage after he'd sung,and he went to the italian lady.I just don't get it,what Judith exatcly meant when he kissed Pat that she had seen,and did Pat end up together with The Italian Lady?Please help me,thank u very much!" Quote from someone on IMDB in reference to a movie he/she didn't understand. Such grammar!

I love so many books. Let's see how many I can remember:
Breakfast at Tiffany's- One of my all-time favorites
The Great Gatsby
Number the Stars
The Crucible- Wierd, I know, but I love it
Bridge to Terebithia
ALL Harry Potter
The Scarlet Letter

So many others that I can't think of right now.

I could be here all day posting books. My all time favorite though is Outlander by Diana Gabaldon. It is a great escape read and it really well written. It pulls you in and gets you very attached to the characters and what happens to them throughout the book and on through the series.
Runners up would be
The Harry Potter books
Number the Stars
Bridge to Terebithia
Owen Meany (I haven't read this in years and I really want to read it again)
Beloved
