What's your favorite Book? I don't mean Sportsbook. I mean a book that you have read.

Any of the Shannara books by Terry Brooks..

[samgurt]

Lies My Teacher Told Me

(Explains what was wrong in some history books and some secrets that weren't told. Not just random BS either.)

Pretty good book if you like history

[nyed1010]

Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire

[nijole]

Rich dad, poor dad.

[JohnGalt2341]

I just finished The Revolution: A Manifesto by Ron Paul. It was excellent! It's a must read for anyone that believes in Freedom and Liberty. For those of you that don't know what Ron Paul is all about you need to check out this book. You can likely pick it up at your local Library like I did.

I think I'm going to pick up The Moral Landscape by Sam Harris next. Keep the suggestions coming! This thread needs to live on!

Who is john galt?

[doylfish]

reading "The Book of Basketball" right now, by Bill Simmons, updated paperback version, good stuff

[Stumpage]

"Replay" by Ken Grimwood.....I've read hundreds, probably even thousands of books, but this is one that I still think of often, decades after reading it. Only book I ever read by this author, and since he's long since passed away, that won't change.

Anyway, awesome tale with a gambling angle to boot.....

To Kill a Mockingbird

[Dutch]

'The Sicilian' by Mario Puzo

'Watership Down' - Richard Adams

[thejanitor]

Paco mentioned To Kill a Mockingbird. I really enjoyed this one back in HS. Probably the first book I ever read in one sitting.

Opie mentioned The Road. Great book. Movie was just ok.

I like the Stieg Larsson series. Still need to read The Girl who Kicked the Hornets Nest.

Recently read Worth Dying For by Lee Child. Couldn't put it down. Will be looking forward to reading other "Jack Reacher" novels.

The Stranger by Camus sticks out as a memorable book I've read in the past.

I've enjoyed the Einstein biography by Isaacson; the parts I've read so far. It's a brick and I need to check it out of the library again.

Atlas Shrugged Mr. Galt.

[JohnGalt2341]

Atlas Shrugged Mr. Galt.

Solid choice.

I'm currently reading "Stumbling on Happiness" by Daniel Gilbert. It's pretty interesting. It's not a self-help book. It talks more about how a persons Happiness level pretty much stays the same regardless of what "happens" to them in life.

[Goat Milk]

The Count of Monte Cristo.

Winter Dreams

The Kite Runner

A Reversal of Fortunes

The Catcher in the Rye

[Goat Milk]

Great Expectations

great choice

[moses millsap]

Big fan of Tom Perrotta's work. Little Children was a great movie, but an even better book.

[numismatist]

Foucault's Pendulum by Umberto Eco

[MendozaLine]

A Clockwork Orange, The Narrative of Arthur Gordon Pym of Nantucket, Angela's Ashes.

In that order

[caseyman011]

One Hundred Years of Solitude by Gabriel Garcia Marquez.

[smitch124]

Great thread guys!

My favs:

The Holographic Universe - Michael Talbot
The Culture of Make Believe - Derrick Jensen
Any book written (or should I say channeled) by Jane Roberts. Whether you believe in channeling or not the content is amazing.

[gauchojake]

I am a big fan of James Elroy but I think my favorite is White Jazz. I recently read a pretty good collection of short stories called Dead Boys by Richard Lange. If you like the LA crime noir genre, I would highly recommend it.

[DrStale]

Great thread, lots of good stuff in here.

a few of mine:

To Kill a Mockingbird
Tom Sawyer
Catch-22
Animal Farm
Lord of the Flies

More cotemporary a lot of Stephen King, Nelson DeMille, Ken Follet

Sports related: Fever Pitch, Game of Shadows, Stealing Lives

[TheCentaur]

Great Expectations by Charles Dickens. Estella is such a f***ing bitch, and Jaggers makes my skin crawl.

[Eleven]

I Chose Freedom by Viktor kravchenko...Incredible page turner about a soviet political man under Stalin who defects to the west.

[darrell74]

Art of War

[GOIRISH]

i hope they serve beer in hell
assholes finish first

[20Four7]

The Millennium Series

Girl with the Dragon Tattoo
Girl who kicked the hornets nest
The girl who played with fire.

Sports related Moneyball is pretty good, and his latest The Big Short is very interesting

[HoulihansTX]

Where the Red Fern Groww.

[Dutch]

Pillars of the Earth - Ken Follett

Trinity - Leon Uris (This one took me awhile, I'd get bored and come back to it, ended up being an excellent book)

[Dutch]

Visions: How Science Will Revolutionize the 21st Century (Non Fiction and probably a little out dated but I loved this book)

[Dutch]

James Michener's books can be dry as hell but always end up being really good. I've ready maybe 8-10 of his books, some are better than others. Poland and The Covenant come to mind as being my favorites of his.

[shermanator]

Harry Potter

[Sawyer]

5Dimes, Betfair, Tuttur.com, Bahsedeger.
