What's Your Favorite Book?
Re: What's Your Favorite Book?
I definitely need to update my list to have The Prince of Nothing series, by R. Scott Bakker. It's really good!

Re: What's Your Favorite Book?
The List by Robert Whitlow sucked. In the middle of the story, it just switched it's focus to God, and how God can fix anything, and accepting God, etc. I said it was good before, but now I hate it.
Anyway, Gone but not Forgotten is quite an interesting read. Not the best book, but it's alright. Scavenger by Tom Savage is great, as well as Still Life with Crows by Douglas Preston and Lincoln Child. The best part is, I just learned that the last book I mentioned actually has several books with the protagonist, Pendergast, in them. I'm going to track them down now.

I hate bronies. I really do. I find them to be quite frivolous and silly among the other more offensive adjectives I won't use for the sake of politeness.

Re: What's Your Favorite Book?
Hitchhiker's Guide was AMAZING. So was The Book Thief... gotta be the most cool beans books EVER! 
Re: What's Your Favorite Book?
Hey, I'm reading Hitchhiker's Guide myself! It's really amazing that after 18 years on this Earth, I haven't even read it yet. Well, better late than never!

Life is like a grapefruit - it's kinda orangey-yellow, squidgey in the middle, and some people like half of one for breakfest.

Re: What's Your Favorite Book?
WHOO REVIVAL or something
M'kay, since it looks like I haven't made a list of books I like yet... might as well!
Series that I like:
-His Dark Materials (Well, mainly The Golden Compass. Other two were okay)
-Harry Potter
-The Lost Years of Merlin
-The Hunger Games (love)
-Pretty much anything by Tamora Pierce
-Fablehaven
-Percy Jackson and the Olympians (though I've only read the first couple... need to get back to that, loved those books)
-Ranger's Apprentice (Need to get back to that one, too. Read the first 5, ish)
-Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy (Only read the first 3)
-Maximum Ride (Again... need to finish the seires... gah, I never noticed how many series I leave hanging)
Other books:
-The Theif Lord (I read it forever ago, but I remember liking it a ridiculous amount. Planning on re-reading it to see if I still think it's amazing... when I find the time. Which won't ever happen)
-Through the Eyes of a Raptor (Okay, I admit it, that one wasn't the BEST book ever, but I met the author when I was in 4th grade and we (my class) got to choose what the evil shapeshifter turned into. I have a special connection to that book.)
-Of Mice and Men (One of the only English class books that I actually enjoyed)
-The Hobbit (I haven't read Lord of the Rings yet... should get to that)
And, might as well....
Books I'm planning on reading:
-1984
-Les Miserables
-Lord of the Rings
-Fishing all the aformentioned series that I've yet to finish
