1984 is an excellent book.

Books I read over and over are Gone Girl, Winter's Bone, The Hot Zone, and The Perfect Storm. And every time I read The Perfect Storm, I wish for the end to change.

The Choir Boys by Joseph Wambaugh... but I, as an adult, don't read. Nobody likes to read required books in High School, but DID like A Tale of Two Cities and On Wings of Eagles.

My favorite book of all time is The Velveteen Rabbit. I bought the 100th anniversay edition just because.

 

[Winchester]

Probably my favorite series is Outlander, but I enjoyed the prior books much more so than the last several that came out.

From the time I was a little girl, my favorite book has been Alice in Wonderland. It's simply magical and that never fades.

 

[neely]

The Scarlet Letter

One of my all time favorites too!

 

[aliceneko]

I don’t really have any favourites since I read a lot and it’s impossible for me to pick one; but I’m drawn to historical fiction and romance books the most.

The Choir Boys by Joseph Wambaugh... but I, as an adult, don't read. Nobody likes to read required books in High School, but DID like A Tale of Two Cities and On Wings of Eagles.

One of my required readings in HS was Alas Babylon. It became one of my favorites.
