Okay I'm like in my late 30's and I love the Harry Potter books. I can read them over and over. I really don't have a favorite just all of them. I can't wait til the last one comes out.

My favorite novel is The Catcher in the Rye by J.D. Salinger. I read it for the first time when I was fifteen and I loved it. I could really relate to the main character Holden because he didn't want to grow up and neither did I. Plus it was an easy book to read and it kept my teenage mind focused!

The first best novel was the best novel...I was 15.
"Gone with the Wind"
Romance and History of the Civil War they never taught us in school. The movie was wonderful too.
Second best: Age 18, The Dirty Dozen was hillarious.

The Woman In White by Wilkie Collins
I was 30 when first I read that particular work.
The suspense, the mystery surrounding the main character, the tragedies that befell each character in turn throughout the story.
The cold, calculated villany of the books main agressor and yes, the ending was very well done.

Isaac Asimov's 'Foundation' series. It's a fascinating look at civilization.
I started reading it in my teens (about 1960) and have reread it several times since then. I think I'm about due for another reading.
It is considered by many S-F fans and critics to be the definitive S-F experience.

Huckleberry Finn. I enjoy the different dialects of the characters. The situations are amusing. First read it when I was 12 years old. I have read it several times since.

DaVinci Code - Read it a few years ago. Great historical-adventure.
Dances With Wolves - Read it for the first time five or so years ago. It is a great story af searching for onesself.
