    I love a load of books too and also prefer ones where you get lost in the story and can't put them down.

    James Patterson's Alex Cross series are amazing.....

    I agree....I love to get lost in the story! I've heard the Alex Cross series is great! It's on my list too!

    Anything and EVERYTHING by Dennis Lehane, especially Mystic River, The Given Day and Shutter Island. Also absolutely love Thomas Harris, the Hannibal books.

    And Harry Potter of course.

    I love reading. Lately anything by Chuck Palahniuk, Jonathan Lethem, or TC Boyle will do the trick. I also have been rereading favorites like 1984 and anything by Isabel Allende.

    My favorite book of all time is The Giver. I'm not quite sure why, but it is. I also liked Harry Potter, As I Lay Dying, Wild At Heart.

    I have a huge list of books I want to read.. And conveniently enough, there is a used bookstore and a library within walking distance of my apartment :)

    perks of being a wallflower by stephen chbosky

    it's sad, funny, awkward, and amazing! i totally recommend it. it's an epistolary novel (written in letters the main character writes). IT IS AWESOME.

    I love all kinds of books, I don't think I could pick just one. I loved Water For Elephants, Something Borrowed, 1984, Catcher In The Rye, Animal Farm... Right now I'm reading biographies/autobiographies on Ted Williams, The Beatles, Neil Young.. next I want tog get some Bob Dylan ones and Steven Tyler. I only buy used though, I hate stores like Barnes and Noble. I go to a local used bookstore.

    Those are some of my all time favorites too. My favorite though is World War Z by Max Brooks. I recommend this book as strongly as I can to everyone. I've made about 5 people read it and they all loved it. It's about a zombie apocalypse, but told as a series of interviews after the fact. Really a great book, even if you're not into zombies at all. Brad Pitt is making it into a movie.

    I just started to read "Skinny B!tch" and it is also awesome.

    I love J R Ward's books, Harry Potter, Twilight, Jaqueline Carey, etc
