Dirk Gently's Holistic Detective Agency

Lee A Stewart · 06-18-2020, 08:55 AM

Book 1 (out of 3) in the Paratwa Saga. IMO: Absolutely the best SciFi series ever written.

Best sci fi ever written for a series and author I've never heard of is very intriguing. Looks like it's out of print, a Kindle edition coming in October. I've added it to my list.

I have a few. But my ultimate fav is "The Perks of Being a Wallflower". My other favorites are "Call Me By Your Name" and "Openly Straight"

Lemmy Lugosi · 08-02-2020, 08:09 PM

I cannot choose just one. I have read thousands and thousands of books, and there are several dozen that I could sit down and re-read right now.

American Tabloid (James Ellroy)

petrichor · 03-28-2021, 12:53 PM

Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance! The sequel, Lila, is also good. Some other favorites... Fahrenheit 451, Solaris, and Jane Eyre.

John1701D · 04-30-2021, 02:00 AM

I can no more pick a favorite book than I can a movie or a cat. I love so many.

matmati · 10-14-2021, 04:00 PM

Too many to list! But some that come to mind are:

- James Agee - A Death in the Family
- William Shakespeare - Everything, but especially The Tempest
- Shirley Jackson - The Haunting of Hill House
- Stephen King - Everything
- Scott Smith - The Ruins
- Michael Cunningham - The Hours
- Annie Proulx - Close Range: Wyoming Stories

Dubstar · 10-27-2021, 04:23 AM

just one, oh that's tough, it toggles between:

The Hobbit
The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy

oh and Weaveworld from Clive Barker

Dylanm10 · 06-22-2022, 06:32 AM

My favorite book to date is Rich Dad Poor Dad by Robert Kiyosaki. I have tried to work on the piece of advice that Robert suggests in the book and I am close to achieving financial freedom. He makes it look so easy and the way he portrays examples of it is amazing. I would suggest this book to everyone who is struggling financially and wants to achieve more in life!

Archerwell · 10-28-2022, 01:22 PM

For me, my pick would be To Kill A Mockingbird by Harper Lee. It is a Pulitzer Prize winner and a classic. It was published in 1960 and the story takes place during the great depression. I have recently found article and the conclusion was "through an entertaining tone, literature is able to educate the society in various indulgencies, which by scaly scrutiny may seem right. ‘To kill a mockingbird’ also serves to solve even the modern world’s prevailing challenges such social inequalities and inhumane acts toward innocent citizens for instance corruption which can be compared to an act of killing a mockingbird". Now, 62 years later since its publication, the story is still prevalent.

Namuhana · 10-29-2022, 06:41 PM

I couldn't possibly choose one, but these are some of my favorites:

Beloved by Toni Morrison
Call Me By Your Name by André Aciman
The Grapes of Wrath by John Steinbeck
A Little Life by Hanya Yanagihara
My Year of Rest and Relaxation by Ottessa Moshfegh
Norwegian Woodd by Haruki Murakami
The Remains of the Day by Kazuo Ishiguro

Member-638096 · 05-02-2023, 06:28 PM
