What is your favorite book of all-time?
Reading serves many purposes. Whether it be an escape, a tool for learning or a fun hobby. A good book is hard to come across and it takes many reads to find a book that you genuinely love and can read again many times.
Which book is your all-time favorite that you can read multiple times without getting bored of?
Hi @comfortableNight4463 !
"Ender's Game" by Orson Scott Card. That book wins, hands down!
@WriteToHeal42 oh wow! What did you mostly love about that book? I would love to read it!
@comfortableNight4463 I fell in love with the characters in the book! Also it's a beautifully told story :)
@WriteToHeal42 Thanks for sharing. Might give it a read. I love when I get book recommendations so thank you!
@comfortableNight4463 You're welcome! 😃
Dark Summer by Lizzy Ford.
@WhiteRoses25 Oh nice. Have to check that out. Thank you!
You’re welcome it’s a series
@WhiteRoses25 Ah yes! What is it that you like the most about this series?
The way the author when I was 22 brought the characters to life even before she was a well known author. I first read it on wattpad. I spoke to the author personally. So it’s kind of intimate to me.
@WhiteRoses25 oh wow. That is amazing that you have a personal bond to the book!
Definitely all the series of The Cemetery of Forgotten Books! Zafon, I'm loving it!
@GMatt Glad to hear! What is your favorite thing about this series?
I love his poetic language and this dark world which allows me to change the environment!
@GMatt Sounds amazing!
"The Call of the Wild" - Jack London
My aunt gave a copy to me at age 12. I read it then, could hardly put it down.
I've (re)read it perhaps 5 times over the span of 50 years since. I find something new each time. An amazing work of fiction.
@usedItUp Awww. It's so endearing that your aunt introduced you to your favorite book. You both must have similar taste. Have you asked her for other book recommendations as well?
@comfortableNight4463
She is long gone.
The volume she gave to me was a nice hardcover edition, and the cost to her was substantial for the time. At this moment I have the realization that I probably never thanked her properly for that gift.
"The Life and Times of the Thunderbolt Kid" by Bill Bryson.
@Wilkoman Sounds nice. What do you like most about it?
I think it's the funniest of his books, very relatable.
@comfortableNight4463
The Art of War! So many life lessons in there.
@okarina I love self-help books. Might have to read it!
The Priory of the Orange Tree by Samantha Shannon!
@saltysummerday What is it that you love about this book?
"It's Kind of a Funny Story" by Ned Vizzini! TW for psychiatric hospital, depression and suicidal ideation.
It's very funny and honest and fantastic. I loved it growing up and it's still one of my very favorites
@MusicalBug Wow. Sounds like an interesting read!
After Dark by Haruki Murakamk:)
@AfterDark912 I've heard great things about murakami. What makes you love this particular book so much?
