OMG, I LOVE those books!! They're gonna be made into a movie!! I hope they're good movies, or I'll be pissed. But, that series is one of my faves!! I don't really have a favourite, but I have some favourites, like The Constant Gardener by John le Carre, the Artemis Fowl series, the Harry Potter series, the Alex Rider series, Pillars of the Earth by Ken Follett, Animal Farm by George Orwell (is that his name? I can't remember) and Falling Leaves by Adeline Yen Mah. Falling Leaves was so sad, it made me cry *sobs*

I didnt know that 'Across the Nightingale Floor' belonged to a series anyway.Anyway some of my favorites are 'The Dark Matter Trilogy' by Philip Pullman, 'The Malazan Book of the fallen' by Steven Erickson, 'Lord of the Rings' by J.R.R Tolkien, the 'Discworld' series by Terry Pratchet, 'The Rule of Four' by Ian Caldwell & Dustin Thomason and the 'Redwall' series by Brian Jacques.

My favorite book is "The Third Life of Grange Copeland", by Alice Walker, the J.R.R. Tolkien books are pretty cool too

.hack//AI Busters is currently my favorite book. You may be thinkin it's manga because it's .hack//, but I assure you it's a full novel, and a good one at that.

I thought about buying that one in BAM the other day. I picked it up, thinking it was a manga, then fliped through it and saw it was a novel. That almost got me to buy it, but other things took priority. =\

Anyway, books...books...(in order from most to least)...

"Left Behind: The Kids" series by Tim LaHaye and Jerry B. Jenkins
"How to Talk to a Liberal (if you must)" by Ann Coulter
"The Chronicles of Narnia" by C.S. Lewis
"Harry Potter" by JK Rowling

I'm sure I'll ammend to this list eventually...

Stephen King's "The Stand." An absolutely outstanding story. All of King's books are great.
