Hmm, I don't have any most favorite books, but some of the books I read over and over were Homeless Bird and the Little House On the Prairie series.

Eliot Baker | 1 comments The Kingkiller Chronicles
Lord of the Rings
All the Pretty Horses/Border Trilogy
The Goldfinch
Stranger in a Strange Land

This is an updated list of the books that, right now, I've read or re-read recently and occupy space in my mind as I view the world and events therein. If I were to reach back to my all-time most influential books through my teenage years it'd include more of the Russian masters, Dickens, definitely Twain, as well as Stephen King and Anne Rice. I love the beauty of literary fiction, but I'm hungry for a good, entertaining story!

I've never read Lord of the Rings but if it's as long as the movies then I wouldn't make it through it lol.

Mary Catelli | 432 comments I read The Hobbit, or There and Back Again, and it, in one weekend when it was a trick and a half to pry me away from it for ANY reason. Not even food and bed. . . it was that consuming.
