I guess mine is To Kill a Mockingbird.

I also loved  the HHGTTG.

So far, it's Winston Churchill's "History of the Second World War" volumes 1-3.

My favorite books as a teen were the first 3 books in series The Chronicles of Thomas Covenant by Stephen Donaldson. As an adult, it would be either Snow Crash or The Diamond Age by Neal Stephenson.

I really liked I Know This Much is True, by Wally Lamb.

It's been quite a while since I read that one.

Would your answers be different if you were asked what is your favorite book for entertainment vs what is your favorite book because it moved you or spoke to you?

I liked The Bluest Eye by Toni Morrison.

I'm glad this thread came along.  I am uncultured swine and I was thinking of picking up a book to read, since all I ever read is programming stuff and textbooks.  I'll have to try one of these.

I don't think I have one.  I really loved reading Great Expectations in school, though.  The Cider House Rules would also be up there.

Jessie

I keep meaning to read The Cider House Rules.

One of my favorite reads is a series of books called "The Deathgate Cycle" by Margaret Weiss and Tracy Hickman.  I adored the characters and the world they created.  link

Staples like HHGTTG, LOTR, and a slew of PK Dick, Neil Stephenson, and William Gibson works are also up there.

I read it in college, it is suprisingly short on wank material.

I read the Kama Sutra in college. I had the version with no pictoral aids.
