What's your favorite book? - Page 6 - Blu-ray Forum

John The Grudge · 11-27-2019, 12:36 PM

I can narrow it down to three.

Stephen King - Night Shift
Stephen King - Salems Lot
Vincent Bugliosi and Curt Gentry - Helter Skelter

If I had to take one it'd probably be Salems Lot. I don't recall the first book I read but Salems Lot (my first King experience) was the first that really transported me to another place. Reading his books as a young boy was brilliant. His books were vivid in my imagination like no other author. All young people should read his books.

Well, since I have read only 2 books so far, it has to be The Shining.

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.

Moby Dick

I am Legend.

Good Omens.

It's the funniest book I have ever read.

CrossRhodes94 · 08-01-2020, 07:03 PM

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.

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.

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.

You will not be disappointed!

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

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!
