I have so many favorite authors. Danielle Steel, Sandra Brown, Dean Koontz, Stephen King. They all have a different style of writing and different types of books. I can't pick a favorite. Which book I read normally depends on my mood at that time and whether I thirst for horror, mystery or romance.
As for favorite books. I know I had a few favorite books as a child I loved "the Cat in the Hat". There was this one book and I believe I still have it packed away somewhere in a box but I cannot remember the name. Maybe someday when I'm ready I will be able to look into that box. As a teen I hated to read, didn't have time for it, so any book I was forced to read was a hindrance so there was no favorite books.
Now I love to read. At this time my favorite book and this is usually the case if it's a good book, is the one I am reading. And I am currently reading Stephen King's Everything's Eventual. It's 14 different stories in one book. Right now I'm on All That You Love Will Be Carried Away. I just started this story so I do not know much about it. His stories often give me the chills. I love to read before I go to bed. Yet, reading this book is often the reason I can't sleep. I know it's just words on a page, but I always put myself into what I'm reading or watching. So it's best to read stuff during the day.
I love books. I can escape. Just not too far.

because they are from the hood and the only authors who can really capture the grimeness of the drug game and the streets and when they write its so raw and real. i never had a favorite book as a child whatever came into my hands i read now my favorite book would have to be nervous by zane she is an incredible writer also. im not into white authors like that just books about the street hood tales i call them.
I'm up!

When I was a child, my favorite book was Little Women by Louisa May Alcott. It just seemed that Jo was so natural and so creative, that I thought if she could write, so could I. I found a lot inspiration in that book. Now I read a lot of Tony Hillerman and Sara Paretsky. I prefer historical fiction as opposed to mystery. I have Cannery Row by Stienbeck in my night stand. I'm just starting that. There are so many.

I loved Dr. Seuss as a kid - still do. My fav is James Patterson & Mary Higgins Clark. I'm with you on the reading thing too. Loved reading when I was little, hated it as a teenager when I had to do it and back to loving a good book now. Thank goodness!
