Favourite Books?!?

**Kazillo** · 03-12-2013, 05:47 PM

Some people read and some people hate reading. I for one love reading because my Grandma read to me as a kid, therefor I grew up loving it. But I'm not any book worm, I just mean I enjoy it. I read in my free time when I'm not playing AL. But what are your favourite books if you do read? Right now I am currently reading The Hobbit and I love it! What's your favourite book?

I have a list

So nerdy

Harry Potter, Of course
Inheritance Cycle (Eragon, Eldest, Brisingr, Inheritance)
Skulduggery Pleasant Series
Gone Series
Series of Unfortunate Events

AND All of Graeme Base's Picture Books - Beautifully drawn, Lovely Poetry and all the "I Spy" and Hidden Secrets are a bonus

OH YEAH and I Spy books :P

you should check out dragonlance chronicles, I haven't read any of the other series but these 3 books are excellent. They're very similar to the hobbit but not a rip off by any means. I'm one of those people who hates reading, I only read the first one for a book report back in high school and just had to finish the series.

Here's the dragonlance wiki it shows all their books:

Circle Series - Ted Dekker

no one writes like he does.

**Vystirch** · 03-13-2013, 08:56 AM

Series that I love:

Tolkien, J.R.R:
Lord of The Rings, The Hobbit, Silmarillion, The Children of Hurin, The Books of Lost Tales, The Legend of Sigurd and Gudrun, Tales from a Perilous Realm, and Unfinished Tales of Numenor and Middle-Earth.

Paolini, Christopher:
Eragon, Eldest, Brisingr, Inheritance.

Flanagan, John:
Ranger's Apprentice Series. (11 books)

Collins, Suzanne:
The Hunger Games, Catching Fire, Mocking Jay.

Harry Potter was alright, but the ending to the last book absolutely is a fail.

**Kazillo** · 03-13-2013, 07:25 PM

I was huge fan of Suzanne Collins first book series that no one has heard of. I read the final book the day it came out, it's called Gregor The Overlander.

Even though its a comic/graphic novel, I love The Walking Dead.

**XghostzX** · 03-13-2013, 10:06 PM

When I read the Harry Potter series, I couldn't take my eyes off it. Then after years go by, I watch the last Harry Potter movie. In my Top 5 saddest days of my life.

hah, this makes me sad, no one reads these days, only a few posts and 100 views, that's why there are so many idiots that roam these forums and games. I've lived in 3 different countries and i can tell you one thing, never have i met an intelligent person who doesn't read. Those who don't are simply stupid, with dumb faces, remarks and actions.

One such cretin can say 'oh yeah man, what has reading got to do with being smart duh', or even worse...'man i get straight As in my subjects'...yet they don,t understand one thing, it's about being 'smart' or have a right to say 'oh yeah i've read books', it's about learning and anylizing situations/feelings and experiences.

Bah, who am i writing this for, i guess for the very few that care.

I'm surprised out of all those Charles Dickens books you've yet to read Great Expectations!

Great Expectations, classic, loved it. (Curse you Havisham)

Tom Sawyer & Huckleberry Finn

Hunger Games Series

Eragon Series (better than the movie)

Harry Potter (of course)

There are many more, these just popped into my head first.

I don't agree with the "people who don't read are stupid" part of your comment but I agree with part of it. More people need to read!
