My favorite book would probably be Dune (Frank Herbert), The Stand (Stephen King), or The Mote in God's Eye (Larry Niven & Jerry Pournelle). Hard to decide among those three.

I looooove reading. When I was 18 I made a list of all the books I had read, and it was over 5,000 even at that young age. I was a freaking voracious reader during my teens and 20s. One night I read two books then started the Chronicles of Amber and read ALL OF THOSE too, for a total of 7 books in one night (granted, they were kinda thin). I lived one block from a library, which helped, although they wouldn't give me an 'adult' library card until I turned 16, which was pretty funny seeing as I was reading adult stuff when I was quite young. One of my 5th grade teachers caught me reading the Exorcist one day, and I happened to be at the point where the girl is jamming the cross into her vagina and saying, 'Fuck me! Fuck me!' He told me that was not an appropriate book for my age and told me not to bring it to school anymore. So I put a Jacque Cousteau book cover (Mysteries of the Deep or something) over the Exorcist, so I could finish it in peace. Heh.

Anyone remember the Science Fiction Book Club? They had this deal where when you'd join, you got four free books, and whoever recommended you got two free books, then you had to buy two books over the next year. Well, I had four people (family) who let me use their names, plus my own, so I had this rotating system using all five names (four family plus my own). One name joined, got 4 free books. Then that name got the other four names to join, which got me 24 more free books. Then I had to buy ten books at $1.99 each (for hardbacks!), then I'd start the cycle over again. So for $20 plus shipping, I'd end up with a total of 38 books. I sucked them dry and filled a room with hardback science fiction books.

These days I don't read as much. We have computers and far more TV channels; there's just more options these days. I'm down to 8 books every two weeks now, and no more library a block away either.
jamstigator Reviewed by jamstigator on . What's Your Favorite Book? I love reading. I do it all the time right after i've smoked a nice joint and then go to bed. I've read tons of books but so far my favorite was Fear and Loathing In Las Vegas. I'm reading the book for Blow, and it's actually pretty good. I'm open to suggestions for good reads... Rating: 5
