Finally! A thread about books!
I'd have to say that my favorite book of all time would be The Tale of Despereaux by Kate DiCamillo. The Tale of Despereaux, also known as The Tale of Despereaux: Being the Story of a Mouse, a Princess, Some Soup, and a Spool of Thread is a 2004 Newbery Medal winning children's fantasy book written by Kate DiCamillo. The main plot follows the adventures of a mouse named Despereaux, who sets out on his quest to rescue a beautiful human princess. The book was adapted into an animated film in 2008. The novel is divided into four books and a coda. Each book tells the story from the perspective of a different character.

Two of my favorites are The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn by Mark Twain and As I lay Dying by Faulkner. Two oldies but masterpieces of American Literature. I also like most of Steinbeck's novels, Tolkien is great. I like a lot of stuff.

My favorite book's definitely Life as We Knew It by Susan Beth Pfeffer. The book really shows how to cope when everything is thrust out of your grasp and all your previous problems now seem minuscule. It shows just how much things can change in a short amount of time, and how no matter just how bad things get, you have to have hope, because without hope, you lose your will for survival. Just one little ray of hope can make all the difference between life and death, and by keeping hope, the main character shows that nothing can stand in her way.

Hmm...

It is almost impossible to label a single book as my favorite because of how broad literature is, and the plethora of outstanding pieces to choose from. One series of books that stands out to me is the "Destroyermen" series by Taylor Anderson. It is extremely well written, and an interesting approach to not only warfare, but to shipwrecking/being torn from your homes. I recommend it to anyone who likes either science fiction or war novels.

The whole Harry Potter series, for me. No book in existence compares to those books. By the way, the movies are good, too.

My favorite book of all time is without a doubt, The  Hunger Games If your a book reader and love books, i guarantee you will love this one.
The Hunger Games is a young adult novel written by Suzanne Collins. It was originally published in hardcover on September 14, 2008, by Scholastic. It is written in first person and introduces sixteen-year-old Katniss Everdeen, who lives in a post- apocalyptic world in the country of Panem where the countries of North America once existed. The Capitol, a highly advanced metropolis, holds absolute power over the rest of the nation. The Hunger Games are an annual event in which one boy and one girl aged 12 to 18 from each of the 12 districts surrounding the Capitol are selected by lottery to compete in a televised battle in which only one person can survive.
