So difficult to choose from so many great books. But if it came just to one favorite, that'd be "Huckleberry Finn" by Mark Twain.
Well, I'm sure everybody knows what it is about, and for me, it is a book that deals with human nature.

The Stand by Stephen King. Its a story about good versus evil set in modern times. The good being Mother Abigail and her group in Boulder Co and the bad being The Walking Dude and his cronies in Las Vegas NV. Great story Great ending. I've read the story 4 or 5 times.

in the first book(twilight) the main character bella falls in love with a vampire edward and she is almost killed by another evil vampire
in the second book (new moon) edward mst leave bella becuase she almost got killed by his vampire family and she finds out her best friend jacob is a werewolf. edward comes back at the end but the royal family of the vampires finds out that a human (bella) knows the secret of vampires so she must be turned into one soon and they will check up on it. bella wants to be turned into a vampire so she can live with edward because vampires dont get older so she is promised it will happen after her highschool graduation
in book 3 (eclipse) she must choose between edward and jacob becuase they are natural enemies(vampires and werewolves) and bella and edward get engaged and the mate of the evil vampire from book one still wants to kill her as revenge for her mate but in the end the evil vampire gets killed

I've read so many good ones! I like reading about true crime mostly. One of my all time favorites was Helter Skelter by Vincent Bugliosi. I also liked "A Million Little Pieces by James Frey.

-I, Mona Lisa by Jeanne Kalogridis
A novel about Lisa Gherardhini
-Special Topics in Calamity Physics by Marisha Pessl.
It's nothing like I've ever read before. It's a coming of age story entwined with murder, mystery, and conspiracy.
