About 600.

Everything from Fiction, history, biography, Science fiction (including over 150 Issac Asimov books) classics but mostly obscure interesting writing.

Anything stimulating, interesting and absorbing.

My favorite? I'll let you know when I've read them all!

Hundreds; with everything from non-fiction to mystery/drama to Celtic history. I have a few favorites; The Mists of Avalon, Gone With the Wind and The Stand.

Yeah, those favorites kind of sum up my taste - all over the place. :-)

Over 500 I guess, mostly mystery and horror with some classics as well.
My favourite is probably The Stand by Stephen King.

I own too many to mention and they range from Scottish folklore and Ghost hunts to century murder mysteries, to anything paranormal to ufo sightings, and also include historical and geographical buildings, true life stories and autobiographies and all the books by Tory Hayden.. and many books to do with conspiracy theories...

Dont have a fav as such, they are all good....

I have probably close to 50 books and still growing. One day, I hope to have a library in my home because I love books. Mostly, they are Classical literature, Suspense/mysterious novels, and thrillers.

i must own about 200 - 300 books.... not sure on the exact number - i've never counted them !

they're mainly horror and science fiction books, by authors like Stephen King, Terry Pratchett and Ann Rice. but i also have loads of books from my student days, and from my childhood. (lol - i have lots of Garfield cartoon books)

my favourite book ? i'm struggling to choose just one, but i'd have to go with Lords and Ladies by Terry Pratchett... i love his diskworld novels, in particular the ones with the witches in them.... there must be about 9 or more diskworld books that feature the witches, but i like this one the best. i just love Terry Pratchett's sense of humour and his imagination.

I have so many books that I think I'm going to have to rent storage soon! I don't think I can pick just one favorite.
