I don't read a lot so I'm bias but I did really enjoy da vinci code.

[DXFC]

da vinci code was a goood book....i really enjoyed it

[mgviperman]

i enjoy the Harry Potter books when i wanna get away from reality. Otherwise, my favorites would have to be anything Tom Clancy

[Ballistics]

Hmmm...Right now I'm just reading Books about Fighters. Famous Fighters from C. M. Clay Aka Ali to Bruce Lee. The thinking styles and the reasons for fighting change from person to person but I truly believe we, as human beings, Fight every day. Be it our selfs, others, or fight that which we can not explane. You see, These are topics i enjoy. Real people with a life that had meaning to them selfs and others. I don't know why but I've tried to read fiction books and never thought them as much fun. Now writing my own fiction is much more ful-filling and enteraing, I think. Manga and Comics are always great too. But reading boring Star War books and LOTR stuff isn't much fun for me. Now I understand that this is just my own point of view and others enjoy these books and there topics much, much, more then I. Books will never really appale to every demographic and they shouldn't.

[ Well there you have it amigos, I like to color my text white from time to time. Ballistics out...[B] ]

[ramenkage]

im not too much into the autobiography stuff. some say that fiction is completely fake and that biography are true stories of true people. but to me there is no such thing as absolute truth. there are truth in fiction, it is always derived from the authors experience and the message in which he/she wants to convey and there are lies or rather perspectives in biography. so the line between someones fiction and non fiction usually blur

[Ronin]

Shogun was good.

Umm and I kinda enjoy the Harry Potter Books.

[Sempfy]

Ehh, I don't read anymore, but I used to get told when I was a kid that I read TOO MUCH. :p

I really liked the Harry Potter series actually, probably my favourite.

[Ronin]

Should read Shogun, bout an english Salior who gets a little lost and stumbles on Japan (Portraguese(I cant spell) and Spanish are already there) kinda like The Last Samurai, only cooler.

[ramenkage]

i saw the movie shogun in seventh grade...pretty good for 70s-ish

[Eric]

My favorite book is The Illiad retold.

[Jedimuse]

I luv the HP books, LOTR, SW, the Greek Mythology books, but my favs have to be the mystery novels like Da Vinci Code and the Sherlock novels.

[Kibou]

CATCH 22!!! AWESOMEST BOOK EVAR! I really enjoyed that...well that and As I Lay Dying (good ol Faulkner)...oh and Invisible Man...some good books man.

[Vegoku]

Catch 22...amazing
Lucifer Principle...great
Norse Mythology...nuff said

[mgviperman]

holy crap i forgot about catch 22...read it in...10th grade i think o_O great concept to the storyline :)

alot of people seem to be saying "The DaVinci Code". now i have to read it

[Ennoozunu]

Any book written by Dan Brown is good.
To single a few out tho I especially liked the da vinci code and angels and demons(which is a continuation of the da vinci code).
I'm still reading his other 2 books (deception point and digital fortress).

[ramenkage]

invisible man was decent, not as good as i thought itll be =/

[Zenx]

- Howls Moving Castle

Also like the Diary stuff like, Go ask alice, and Angus, Thongs and Full Frontal Snogging XD

[mongoose9012]

i think mine is The Grim Grotto

[Tesh]

I can't really put any book on #1, there are so many good books and they are all special in their own way.

Shogun is good, somone else mentioned it previously.
The Alchemist (Paulo Coelho) is also excellent, perhaps not ultimate but still.
The little ugly boy (Isaac Asimov & Robert Silverberg) is really good.
Ninja (series by Eric Van Lustbader) is alright, though a bit blunt sometimes.
Harry Potter of course, waiting anxiously for the new book.
Terry Pratchet (author) is unbeatable if you're looking for a good laugh.

I also think I've read the Vampire Lestate someone mentioned, if it's the one I'm thinking about, so beautifully written. It was about a group of boys living in Venice I think.

I'm forgetting a bunch here. That's the problem with borrowing books from the library instead of buying, you forget titles since you're always returning and borrowing. >_<

[MooL]

My favorite book of all time: Howl's Moving Castle - Diana Wynne Jones.

Her books rock out loud.

Let's see, I love the Mediator series by Meg Cabot. All her books are so cute I can't help but read them.

Someone mentioned Catch-22. I just read that book for "summer reading". Aw man. T_T;

But as a comformist, I love Harry Potter. Those books are fantastic.

Basically if it's fiction and it's got adventure, magic, or some really awesome plot line, I'll read it. And I'm a fan of YA books, no matter how dorky everyone knows they are. XD

[Nomadic Dragon]

Any book written by Dan Brown is good.
To single a few out tho I especially liked the da vinci code and angels and demons(which is a continuation of the da vinci code).
I'm still reading his other 2 books (deception point and digital fortress).

Actually, Angels and Demons was written first, THAN The Da Vinci Code was written, But I do agree that they are both good books. I haven't read any other books but him though..

I am more into the Fantasy/Sci-fi books myself. I like the Harry Potter series, I cried when I read book 6. Lord of the Rings and the Hobbit I like as well(Go Legolas, he's way better in the books than in the movies). I have read the Silmarillion liked it but it more like my history book than I am used to reading. The Chronicles of Narania is a good set of books. I would recommend the Sword of Truth series by Terry Goodkind, really good. The Hitchikers Guide to the Galaxy series was good, as is anything written by Douglas Adams(RIP). I WOULDN'T read the wheel of time series by Robert Jordan, good at first but just seems to drag on and on.

[Ren Höek]

dreamcatcher by stephen king and odd thomas by dean koontz

[SminG]

Yay for Sword of Truth series, so deep and so addictive! Yep, that's my favourite, and then there's Terry Pratchett, funny-funny-funny, lol. Do Peanuts count? I Love Snoopy and Woodstock. Haven't been able to read much lately, curse the exams!

[zanoubia]

ima say this again:

I LUV HARRY POTTER!!!!!! ^_^ yay!

[hyperion]

The Dark Lord of Derkholm-Diana Wynne Jones
Starship Troopers-Robert A Heinlein
Paradise Lost-John Milton

[Tennyo Hakumei]

I have plenty but it's only because I love to read and some people say I waste a lot of time on it >>

Correction: The Da Vinci Code is the continuation of Angels and Demons...

I personally, love Dan Brown's Angels and Demons... Currently reading The Da Vinci Code. I kinda liked Harry Potter too but it's lame compared to Dan Brown's books..
