I read only up to maybe six - nine books each year. I'm not much of a reader but when I do its usually a fantasy book or adventure. My favorite book would probaly have to be Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire, yeah I'm a Potter fan. I liked that book because it was outside more and not as dark and gloomy as the rest of the books are out of Harry Potter.

I usually read up to 9-10 books a year but i like to take my time on each one unless it's really good! Mainly on my holidays or spare time.

I prefer the more complicated fiction. Fantasy/horror are a favourite. Usually Stephen King or James Herbert are for my type of read.

Favourite book has to be "Misery" by Stephen King.

I usually read about 6-9 books a year.

Guy de Maupassant is definitely one of my favorite authors.

My all-time favorite book, however, will probably remain Don Quixote de la Manche by Miguel de Cervantes.

Though I read it first about 10 years ago, you can still see the influence in my chosen user-name

I read way more than twelve books a year. At the very least, 109 books a year ( I counted from last year). I love to read so I read so many books. I finish some in one day when they're 400 pages long. Thats how much I love to read. My favorite book would be Cirque Du Freak (I made a topic on it, check it out, please) because of all the action pacted adventure that leaves readers hungry for more. I reccomend it to anyone because it rocks!!!

Alright, I am a huge book worm, I to read and I probably always will. Well has anyone ever started reading the demonata series (where I got my name)?? It's a really good series and its written by the same author as Cirque Du Freak. Its really, really good. it's a mix of horror, action, and awsomeness. Its mainly about a bot named Grubbs (Grubitsch, but he prefers Grubbs, I know, wierd) whos life gets turned upside down by demons because they killed his parents and now he experiences them a lot more than any teenager should. But he learns how to use magic and he fends them off using his really cool power. It gets really interesting. I reccomend it to anyone who is thirteen and above.

For me, my all-time fav series has to be the World of Time series by Robert Jordan. It's composed of tweleve tomes, each equivalent to my all-in-one LotR edition. And very, very well written. Can't express how much I love these books.

Other than that, I also love the Dragonriders of Pern series by Anne McCaffrey, though they vary in "greatness".

Then there's the Crystal Cave, etc. by Mary Stewart
Several by Rosemary Sutcliff, including "Knight's Fee" and "The Eagle of the Ninth"

I loved Catcher in the Rye, which has been mentioned earlier in the post, and it was only a little while after I read it in 9th grade that I really came to appreciate all it means, and the truth in what Salinger writes. Very deep

I'll give most fantasy a try, so long as it doesn't sound too retarded. I also hate things that try to put fantasy in a modern setting (Kingdom of the Golden Gragon, Artemis Fowl) as well as those that mix time period (eg the Wintermark b$). Has to be pure epic

But WoT gets first place. w00t!

I read around a dozen a year (not counting ones I read for school). My favorites would probably be the Dark Tower series or Ender's Game, but I've started reading the Dune books and they definitely might become my favorites. There's also some book in the back of my mind right now that I can't think of, if I remember it I'll edit the post I guess.

I'm a Harry Potter nerd because they are such page turners. I've read the latest one which was over 700 pages in about two days.

I also love Eragon. <3 Good book.

I like mainly fantasy books as well as horror. From time to time I'll read fiction.

My favorite genre is fantasy and my favorite book is Twilight. Although, I like the rest of the books that sequel it. I love the story plot because of the vampire twist. I'm not really sure why but I'm interested in the whole 'forbbiden love' thing even if the relationship seems a little off. My friend introduced me to it and I'm glad for it. I reread the book a lot and can basically recall all or at least most of what every little thing happens in it.

I like "Next" by Michael Chrichton. It is a 500 page book but i probably finished in less than two days. And this coming from someone who isnt that avid of a reader. That's how good it is. It takes place in the very near future and it talks about the implications of our actions and our technology. It focuses mostly on genetics and cloning and how this can become detrimental to a society. It is a very good book and i recomend it to anyone who enjoys science.
