What is your favorite book?

Since SO many people said on the "hobbies" thread that they like to read, I thought it would be nice to make a running list of our favorite books.

My all-time favorite book is:

East of Eden by: John Steinbeck

I love "classics." This one is SO incredibly good. I couldn't put it down.

You know, I can't think of a one that is a favorite. I've truly enjoyed every book I've ever read, from great novels to self-help. I did really enjoy When Rabbit Cries (about the lady with all the personalitities) such a sad, sad book. How anyone could treat a child like that is beyond me. A couple others were Deep End of the Ocean and Gap Creek.

I LOVE to read and have so many favorites but one of my all time favorites is THE JOY LUCK CLUB by Amy Tan. It is such a wonderful tribute to mothers and daughters.

Gone With the Wind has always been my favorite fiction book, but some of James Michener's are good, too, like Hawaii.
