    I read way too much to have a real favorite. I love books! I am reading the Hunger Games as well, before I go see the movie this weekend. Then I think I am going to read A Game of Thrones, since it also has a good reputation.

    Anyone can friend me on Goodreads (http://www.goodreads.com/jschmidt137). I read a bunch of different things and love seeing what other people are reading too. :)

    Brave New World by Aldous Huxley (when I am feeling intellectual)
    Freakanomics (and the sequel) for when I need to have random factoids for casual conversation
    Valley of the Dolls by Jacqueline Susann, and this is my fun book! It is like reading a tabloid.

    Anna Karenina

    The Night Circus

    anything by Christopher Moore (hilarious and bizarre)

    I'm in the middle of A Game of Thrones right now and I can't put it down, so add that to the list.

    Just finished "The Hunger Games" trilogy on Sunday. It reminded me of one of my favorite books, "The Handmaid's Tale" by Margaret Atwood. I would recommend anything by her.

    I'm currently reading "The Master and Margarita". It's good but strange.

    I gotta say that my favorite book to read is probably "Bridget Jones' Diary". It's like an old friend that I can always depend on to make me laugh.
