What's the best book you've read so far? And why?


As for me, I can't decide. I love all my thick history books!



PS: I want to see how many choose Twilight.

For me it's without a doubt "The Children of Hurin". Wonderfull book. Plays out like a greek tragedy and the ending was just phenomenal. I recommend this book to anyone, you don't even have to like LÃ"TR.

Well... I quite enjoy anything historical, and I quite like mythology as well, so Percy Jackson were a fun read for me..

I liked Greek mythology long before Percy Jackson. I wish Riordan would have put in the cool gods and goddesses, the lesser-known ones, instead of just all the really famous ones, y'know?
I like the Bartimaeus Trilogy by Jonathan Stroud, Peeps by Scott Westerfeld(though not so much The Last Days), The Beggar Queen by Lloyd Alexander, and The Westing Game by *I don't remember*(I was totally in the corner of JJ Ford, though. It made me sad that Turtle won).

I like all the books made by Charles Dickens. All of them are great and have a good story to them. The one that I like reading would have to be 'Great Expectations'. Mainly because I remember reading it in the 8th grade and I loved the story. I read it from time to time. But all of his books are great.

There was a distinct lack of Janus. Also no Khaos.

Best book I've read so far? Fight to the death between The World According to Garp, the Divine Comedy, and the Catcher in the Rye.

Lets not forget Hektate.

Its really close between Sun Tzu's 'Art of War', Thomas Hobbes' 'Levithian', and Machiavelli's 'The Prince'.

Divine Comedy


Dude, insane!

After a lot of thinking.

Medidations, The Prince, Mein Kampf (NO FLAK PLEASE), come to mind.

The Wind on fire Trilogy or the ice mark Chronicles. Both Amazing series, and each amazing books on their own.

I have read a lot of great books. You can't compare them i think. Some even make me cry.

But i'm dutch, so if i say the title of a book, i don't think you will know it:P

My sister's keeper i still want to read, but then the dutch version. I think it is a great and moving book!

I like some chronicles books of some Brazilian writers (I am Brazilian), they are very fun and interesting. I don't know. I like a big part of books that you would never know, because they are of Brazilian writers
