I read David Copperfield when I was a kid, three or four times. Also Stevenson's Treasure Island (not in English, though). But the books I like the most about these Authors are "Nicholas Nickleby" by Dickens and "The misterious case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde" by Stevenson. There is also a tale by Stevenson that I enjoyed a lot. It's called "The Bottle Imp". I am sure you would enjoy these as well, since you like classics.

Picking a favourite book is difficult. It all depends on category and all that. I would say that Harry Potter would come in top 3. Maybe Dan Brown's Angels and Demons too. Difficult to say.

My favorite classic would probably have to be Pride and Prejudice by Jane Austen. Before I had read it, I watched the first two versions of it on television (show and DVD) and was addicted to it since that day. I'm not sure, but I really felt this connection to the sisters and even the mother and father. The difficulties of relationships and marrying for money or love, it was a trivial thing at that time. When I picked up the book and started reading it, I couldn't put it down. It's certainly an interesting read.

I love all four Dan Brown's books, Angels and Demons, Digital Fortress, Deception Point and
The Da Vinci Code.
They are just perfect.

My favorite classical book would be, Peter Pan (I'm not sure is that is a hundred years old). I like it because it describes how a kid is still a kid no matter what and the author did that by making an imaginary place (called Never Land) which never makes you grow up. Well the name is self explanitory, nver land. I think it states a childs out look when he is still below 8 years old, and it has adventure in it too, another reason why I like it. It's very enjoyable and very good for kids. I also like Peter and the starcatchers which tells how Peter Pan came to where he was today.

Dickens' David Copperfield - love dickens and moved to Kent about 12 years ago, close to where Dickens spent some of his life

I had loved Little Women by Louisa May Alcott, Great Expectations by Charles Dickens, the Catcher in the Rye by JD Salinger, Pride and prejudice by Jane Austen (Darcy and Elizabeth!). I'm reading Emma right now and i can't get pass the first few chapters! Oh well!

The loveliest of them all? WAR and PEACE by LEO TOLSTOY

The good part of the book is that the protagonists has to change multiple times to cope with the changing world. This showed how the world really works, people can't change just once. We have to change every moment, everyday of our lives we change in all aspects (Physical, Emotional, Spiritual and Financial).

My favorite classic book? I loved Sir Walter Scott's Ivanhoe, it’s the only romance book I've ever really liked. I liked the descriptions, the plot complications and pretty much everything else about it. I also enjoyed both The Lord of the Rings and The Hobbit by J. R. R. Tolkien, they were the first Fantasy books I ever re-read. Most of Mark Twain's works were interesting, and rather funny, though I remember being somewhat disappointed by the Prince and the Pauper when I first read it in 6th grade or so after seeing the Disney movie, which I had really liked. If I had to choose just one, I think it would be Ivanhoe. The portrayal of Robin Hood, Prince John and all the others was so different form what I first learned growing up that it was fascinating. The wording and the incorporation of Saxon/Norman tension were skillfully done. It was by far one of the best Books Ever and I recommend it to anyone who hasn't read it.
