I’m sure this has been done before, but I searched this forum for “favorite” in thread titles, and went back 3 pages without finding anything so I figure I’m good. Please just list three. I’m sure many of us have a hard time narrowing it down, but try. After much thought, I will start with:
[ol]
[li]For Whom the Bell Tolls - Hemingway[/li][li]A Prayer for Owen Meany - John Irving[/li][li]*The Brothers K *- David James Duncan[/li][/ol]
“Catch 22” by Joseph Heller.
“The Stand” by Stephen King.
“The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy” by Douglas Adams (I met my husband because of my love for this one ).
This is what I mean. As I was typing up my list, so too this list. Two of these books would be in consideration for my list tomorrow because I forgot about them. The third one wouldn’t only because I haven’t read it.
The Fire Rose. The first romance book I ever read.
The Stand. The book that got me reading post apocalyptic genre. Also the first book I read that had more than 1000 pages.
The First Evil. It’s a young adult horror novel by R.L. Stine. If it weren’t for this book, I’d never have gotten into reading like I am now, and my life would be completely different from what it is now.
