Do you read? Favourite Books...

I haven't read much since graduating high school, but that is pretty much all that I do at work now. My favorites are the first 4 Harry Potters, I read them a long time ago before the rest came out and have just recently decided to read the entire series. Another is Watership Down...The author currently escapes me, but it is a very good and easy read.

Has anyone read Ishmael by Daniel Quinn?

The book has interesting points to say the least. My favorite book by far.

I love to read. I am reading "Count Down" by Iris Johansen now. My favorite series is "The Dark Tower" by Stephen King. I also really love Kathy Reichs.

No, I'm not old enough to, at least with the 1st half. I've only known the series since I bought it as one giant book.

There are so many books I can't recall the names or authors of that I have read and enjoyed.

Anything written by Christopher Moore.

ANYTHING by Chuck Palahniuk or Darren Shan. So this includes Darren Shan's vampire and demon series.
And of course, Palahiuk's legendary Fight Club. One of my favourite books and films EVER.

My favourite book of all time is George Orwell's 1984. I read it in highschool this year on my own time. Amazing. Epic. Wonderful.

Love A Clockwork Orange too. Incredible film and book. :O

Harry Potter series. Just because! My ball python is named Marvolo. Some hardcore Harry Potter-age here...yo.

I read a lot of Shakespeare. Someone guess the quote in my sig. ;)

And of course...

The Catcher In The Rye.

Because this book perfectly depicts the woes of being a teenager.
