I love Animal Farm (George Orwell), must've read it about 35 times. My other favorites are: Midnight (Dean R. Koontz) Flowers for Algernon - The Novel Edition (Daniel Keyes) Holes (Louis Sachar) The Unprotected Witness (James Stevenson) A Brief History of Time (Stephen Hawking) World As I See It (Albert Einstein) I like to call these books 'The Seven Wonders of Literature'.

Is that David Bowie?” “Never mind that, look!” the American exchange student exclaimed. “I found the Triwizard cup! It’s mine! All mine! I’ll finally get the fame and glory and honor I deserve!” “Stupefy,” said Harry. The American exchange student dropped to the ground, stunned. “Woah!” Cedric exclaimed in astonishment. “You can do magic?!” “Come on, Cedric,” Harry sighed. “We’d better take this together. You know, so Draco Malfoy won’t think I’m selfish. I really want to get with him, you know.” -- Silver Phoenix, Harry Potter and the Omelette of Desire Rabbits Have Rights!

I like science books. And I also like Agatha Christie, because even though it isn't rainbows, there is lots of blood and everything works out in the end.

I love random books, other than the obvious favorites (like LOTR, and Jane Austen for example). More Than You Know by Beth Gutcheon is one that I love, Anne Rice's Original Vampire Chronology (the first 3), some Anne Tyler books, O' Henry shorts, Nicholas Sparks The Guardian, James Herriot (he's fantastic for kids), Philippa Gregory... Now that I'm out of school, I'm afraid my reading is probably going to get less and less sophisticated
