My all time favorite books.....my that is a moving target. It changes rapidly.
At the top of my list are two childhood books: Ole Yeller and The Yearling. The Hobbit and The Lord of the Rings Trilogy.
Most any Louis L'Amour book. Lonesome Dove and The Streets of Laredo.
Right now I am intently studying The Bible for about the 6th time in my life time (65) years.
On my desk at work I have only three books. They are The Bible (NIV), The Road Less Traveled by Dr. M Scott Peck, and Seven Habits of Highly Effective People.

1) Twilight series by Stephenie Meyer- This series is my ABSOLUTE favorite! It's filled with action, romance, and fantasy(vampires) mixed with reality! Don't misjudge the vampire part though, because they arent those "fanged" halloween ones xD Twilight was so detailed, it made me feel as if i was experience that strong feeling of love myself! i loveeeee this series
2) Clique series by Lisi Harrison- This series is mainly realistic fiction, and i find that it's very easy to relate to the characters in these books =D. Not that i can relate to how they enjoy a very spoiled life, but i can understand how their friendships get broken and stuff like that =)
3) Uglies/Pretties/Specials/Extras- I found this series to be OK(not super great like Twilight xD)...
4)Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants- Again, another realistic fiction series that u can easily relate to! It's about friendships and different relationships with people =D
5)The Mediator series- Another series similar to Twilight =D It has romance in it too =)
6)Charlie Bone series- Really magical& exciting!
7) Harry Potter series-Pure magic.
8) A series of unfortunate events- it gave me an idea at how lucky we are to live our lives today =D
