Favorite Book?

[truthseeker]

??? Besides the bible. ;)

[scbyd23]

Through Painted Deserts by Donald Miller or The Firm by John Grisham.

[LLcoolChance]

Screwtape Letters (which went over my head the first time i read it)


And


To Kill a MockingBird

Yeah i can't choose one.

[danbos]

I really like the Redwall series by Brian Jacques and I like "The Hobbit" and the Lord of the Rings trilogy. I liked the Hobbit better than the Lord of the Rings though.

[LuvJesus&3rdDay]

I really really like the Left Behind Series!

[SirMax]

When God Whispers Your Name by Max Lucado

Velvet Elvis by Rob Bell

The Ragamuffin Gospel by Brennan Manning

I've read all of these at least 3 times each....probably more.

[AtlBraves]

I really like the Redwall series by Brian Jacques and I like "The Hobbit" and the Lord of the Rings trilogy. I liked the Hobbit better than the Lord of the Rings though.

You just practically described my list lol. Except I like the Lord of the Rings better than the Hobbit.

I also love the Chronicles of Narnia

[Gandalf]

Non-fiction: Mere Christianity (C.S. Lewis) or Divine Conspiracy (Dallas Willard)

Fiction: Lord of the Rings

[Jason]

Biography: Rich Mullins: An Arrow Pointing to Heaven
Fiction: Lord of the Rings

[middletree]

Waking the Dead, by John Eldredge.

[ZippyApplePants]

On the serious side, Joshua Harris's books are some of my favorites. On the lighter side, any Peanuts book.

[SirMax]

Biography: Rich Mullins: An Arrow Pointing to Heaven


That is a great book!! I think I highlighted something on every page!

[middletree]

On the serious side, Joshua Harris's books are some of my favorites. On the lighter side, any Peanuts book.

But the question is: what's your favorite?

[middletree]

Through Painted Deserts by Donald Miller

I am reading his book Blue Like Jazz now, on ch. 13. It's been excellent so far.

[The Unknown Gomer]

Probably "The Stand" by Stephen King.

Without Molly Ringwald as Frannie, thank you very much. :rolleyes: ;)

[onaree]

Probably "The Stand" by Stephen King.

Without Molly Ringwald as Frannie, thank you very much. :rolleyes: ;)

That is an awesome book. But, which version? There is an edited and unedited version.

My all time favorite would be "Different Seasons" by Stephen King, but more specifically "The Body".

But, I do absolutely love The Left Behind series.

[The Unknown Gomer]

That is an awesome book. But, which version? There is an edited and unedited version.Unedited all the way. :cool: I'd owned and read the edited version in paperback a long time before King had enough editorial control to rerelease it the later unedited version, but went out and bought that one just as soon as it came out. The extra stuff gives the whole book a little more depth.

Some of his later books though, :rolleyes: , sometimes I wish he had a little LESS editorial control, he just has this tendancy to ramble on and on and on...

[onaree]

Some of his later books though, :rolleyes: , sometimes I wish he had a little LESS editorial control, he just has this tendancy to ramble on and on and on...

I read the unedited first. I think it is much better than the edited.

I totally agree. My favorite ones are his earlier stuff. I really liked The Gunslinger Series and wanted him to hurry with the final ones, until they came out. I got the last two and only read the first chapter of the second to last one. I have since gotten rid of my Stephen King collection, except for a few favorites and collector's editions.

[The Unknown Gomer]

I tried reading the Gunslinger series, but had a hard time getting through the first one (don't think I ever finished it, actually). My favorite off-shoot books are Desperation and The Regulators. It's a real trip to read those two back to back, because he uses most of the same characters in both, but they're not the same people in both books.

Night Shift - one of his first books of short stories - is another goodie. Even though The Mangler LITERALLY kept me up for several nights the first time I read it, jumping at every little weird noise. :eek:

Dean Koontz is another good author. I probably actually prefer him to Stephen King now for that genre.

[RevZeek]

Some of his later books though, :rolleyes: , sometimes I wish he had a little LESS editorial control, he just has this tendancy to ramble on and on and on...

Him and Tom Clancy both. I really like reading books about submarines and Navy SEALS but I get really annoyed at the 20 page descriptions of what the specific bolts they use on the torpedo tube blah blah...just get to the story.

I've been enjoying Patrick Robinson's books lately.
Also our very own D. Shane Burton (ChristChild)'s Orianus Creation Series.

[danbos]

You just practically described my list lol. Except I like the Lord of the Rings better than the Hobbit.

I also love the Chronicles of Narnia

I forgot those...

[lilmikey]

I really like the Redwall series by Brian Jacques and I like "The Hobbit" and the Lord of the Rings trilogy. I liked the Hobbit better than the Lord of the Rings though.

That's funny because I just started reading the Redwall books. I'm reading Moussflour now(my first one). I also like the LOTR trilogy but I do think the Hobbit, although not as good, is alot easier to read.

I am a big fan of the Babylon Rising Series but I have not read book four yet

If I HAD to pick a favorite it would be the Prydain Chronicles by Alexander Lloyd while not as widely know as Narnia or LOTR it is still at the top.

I actually think its better in some ways than the others

The ONLY thing that it tops LOTR in is that it is easier to read. LOTR while the best is very very difficult to read at times

Im not really a Narnia fan because Narnia is not a series about one set of characters adventures the bookd are not really linked. Like LOTR and the P.C

I LOVE Jack Higgins novels. I've read over forty of them. The really cool thing is that most of his books deal with I.R.A and the troubles in Ireland. He got me interested in that

[seeker]

Easy. Lord of the Rings.

[Jason]

That is a great book!! I think I highlighted something on every page!

It is, isn't it? Not your typical biography at all.

[TheBus36(Retired)]

I really enjoyed the left behind series

I love Stephen King

My favorite book? Facing your Giants by Max Lucado, what a wonderfully written book.

[Jason]

My favorite book? Facing your Giants by Max Lucado, what a wonderfully written book.

Tammy and I are reading that now.

[freakysoccer]

The Hobbit by J.R.R. Tolkien
Anthem by Anne Rand
The Shining by Stephen King

The Mist is my favorite short stories. I still have problems with fog because of that story. :D

I forgot about one of my all time favorites of his. "Eyes of the Dragon" is an awesome book. I loved that book. It is totally different from anything he's ever written.

[Werwanderflugen]

My Name Is Asher Lev by Chaim Potok

Quite simply the most beautiful novel I have ever read. It's hard for me to put into words... basically, it's about the young life of a Hasidic Jew who is torn between the world of art and the world of his strict religion. It's not a spiritual book, but it's made me think just as much as any Christian book ever has. I HIGHLY recommend this one!

[EmmoGomer]

Im not really a Narnia fan because Narnia is not a series about one set of characters adventures the books are not really linked. Like LOTR and the P.C

When was the last time you read them? They are all totally linked together!

Anyway. The Chronicles of Narnia would be up there as my fave books.
Anne (with an 'e'!) of Green Gables -Lucy Maud Montgomery. Ahhhhh *sigh* Gilbert Blythe!
Little Women - Louisa May Alcott
I could read any of these books over an over. Have done since I was a child - it's comfort reading!
I also love Rebecca by Daphne du Maurier.

[onaree]

When was the last time you read them? They are all totally linked together!
That is totally true! That was one of the things I loved about them. Especially when they all show up in the last one, especially Reepicheep.

[cheewiee]

Knowing God by J.I. Packer... It revolutionanized the way I thought about God, and what having a relationship with him Means.

[Rosie]

I couldn't possibly pick just one, but LOTR and the Hobbit are high on the list.

As are Gone With the Wind, Wuthering Heights, Jane Eyre, The Thirteenth Tale, The Other Boleyn Girl, (and other accurate historical fiction works) Devil in the White City, Dean Koontz "Odd" series, Green Mansions... ugh. The list is never ending... LOL!

Oh! Can't leave out James Herriot's work!

I'll hush now. :)

[mcgreen311]

I am reading his book Blue Like Jazz now, on ch. 13. It's been excellent so far.

Someone recommended Blue Like Jazz to me and I've yet to pick it up.

I don't really have a favorite book, but I rather like Solzhenitsyn, so I'll go with The Oak and the Calf, which is his memoir.

[mammo girl]

I have a few authors I really like. Right now, I'm reading Dean Koontz's The Husband. Caught my attention from the beginning.

[Carebear-303]

awwwh man.
i really like
the house of scorpians =]
:eek: lol

[lilmikey]

When was the last time you read them? They are all totally linked together!

Anyway. The Chronicles of Narnia would be up there as my fave books.

I will read them. I

Sorry I take back that statement. I guess I ought to read them before making such a statement

[EmmoGomer]

Bless you!! It doesn't matter really. You know what it's like when someone says something about something precious (myyyyyyy precious!). I get a bit defensive of Narnia!

[scbyd23]

It's not a spiritual book, but it's made me think just as much as any Christian book ever has. I HIGHLY recommend this one!

The Chosen was also a very good book.

[Tony Trout]

Three books are at the top of my list:

"The Elvis Conspiracy?" (http://www.alibris.com/search/search.cfm?qwork=2011322&wtit=The%20Elvis%20Conspi racy&matches=1&qsort=r&cm_re=works*listing*title ) by Elvis Presley's former head of security Dick Grob detailing the events before and during and after August 16, 1977...it's a humongous book which I paid a hefty price ($82.50) for but well worth it!

"Elvis Aaron Presley: Revelations From The Memphis Mafia" (http://www.alibris.com/search/detail.cfm?chunk=25&mtype=&wtit=Elvis%20Aaron%20Pres ley%20%20Revelations%20Fr om%20The%20Memphis%20Mafi a&qwork=2011277&S=R&bid=9021827752&pbest=4%2E87&pqtynew=1&pbestnew=240%2E00&page=1&matches=19&qsort=r) is also another good book written by a cousin (Billy Smith) and two former "Memphis Mafia" members (Lamar Fike-who has his own book coming out later this year-and Marty Lacker).

"Last Train To Memphis: The Rise Of Elvis Presley" (http://www.alibris.com/search/books/qwork/3761850/used/Last%20Train%20to%20Memph is:%20The%20Rise%20of%20E lvis%20Presley)/"Careless Love: The Unmaking Of Elvis Presley" (http://www.alibris.com/search/detail.cfm?chunk=25&mtype=&wtopic=Elvis%20Presley&wauth=Peter%20Guralnick&qwork=930972&S=R&bid=9086381052&pbest=1%2E99&pqtynew=42&pbestnew=2%2E94&page=1&matches=133&qsort=p)--both by Peter Guralnick and both are absolutely thrilling (and heartbreaking) to read--especially "Careless Love: The Unmaking Of Elvis Presley".

[Thomas H]

I realy enjoyed Skin by Ted Dekker I almost read it again right after I finished it.;)

[lilmikey]

Bless you!! It doesn't matter really. You know what it's like when someone says something about something precious (myyyyyyy precious!). I get a bit defensive of Narnia!

I like Lord of the Ringses. Even though reading all the spelled out detail can be painstaking to read.

Thats one of the pluses of Narnia. Its pretty easy to read and follow.

Anybody let me know if you read any of these

[Mr.Supervious]

I love the Eragon books, A series of unfortunate events, lord of the rings books and the hobbit, and the chronicles of narnia

[ChristChild]

Hmm... My favorite book is Black Storm Rising because it is the first one I wrote. The writing is stronger in the second and third ones, When Worlds Rage and Dark Tyrant's Ascension, but BSR was my first. The three books are really one trilogy, and they are favorites because of the great amount of time they took over an approximate four year period of my life. The complex stories I had to weave together from my imagination were a challenge. Most people that read them, enjoyed them, but for some people they were "too much," and they didn't like them.

Sadly, my fourth sci-fi/fantasy book has been stalled for a long time around 30,000 words, and my first mostly fantasy novel has stalled at 40,000 words. I wrote short stories and poems for a while, yet those have stalled too. So, I guess my 555,000+ word trilogy with have to stand alone until something changes. Anyway...

D. Shane Burton

[Jason]

Shane, I love your books. Black Storm Rising is also my favorite of yours. I wish I could reread them now, but college textbooks are currently my staple diet. Perhaps this summer.

[ChristChild]

Thanks, Jason. :cool:

Shane

[jesus loves me]

"jurassic park", "to kill a mockingbird" and "glory revealed"

[Pixie Wildflower]

Well, I don't love one particular book, but perhaps my favoritie series is the "Darkover Series" by Marion Zimmer Bradley. That in the fiction vien. Non-fiction is perhaps another series "The Story of Civilization". I love all kinds of books though. So hard to choose!

[catman]

I listen to books on CD more than I read, as I don't like to sit in one place very long if I don't need to. I really enjoy the Left Behind series and The Chronicles of Narnia. I'm re-"reading" them now on my commute to work.

[thirday]

No wonder they call Him Savior- Max Lucado

Shakey-Jimmy McDonough (Neil Youngs Bio)
"You have to be ready to give everything you have, and you have to
make sure you've really got a lot to give. Because if you go out
there and you're not ready to give everything you have- and you're
not strong enough to give as much as you possibly can- to go right
to the end of the candle, to right where it's gonna melt and be gone,
then you're nothin'. You shouldn't even be there. You're just markin'
time..............." Neil Young interview with Laura Gross,1988. (pg13)


I have this quote laminated onto my guitar case

[caninemom]

Hi everyone. Just thought I would weigh in. I absolutely ADORE The Chronicles of Narnia and my favorite of all those books is "The Magician's Nephew." In it, (if some are not familiar) it tells how "Aslan" made the world and its inhabitants and also explains how the wardrobe came to be as well as where the white witch comes into the picture. I cry streams when Aslan is giving life to the inhabitants of Narnia.......Just breathtaking.. Actually, as long as it is NARNIA, I love it, Aslan in particular.

[RevZeek]

Shane...I'd love to read another Orianus book! Here's hoping the wind will pick up and those sails of your imagination will open to a flood of words :D

[ChristChild]

Shane...I'd love to read another Orianus book! Here's hoping the wind will pick up and those sails of your imagination will open to a flood of words :D

Thanks, Zack. I wish I could get back into writing again as well. I've only been able to focus on editing BSR lately, as I want to one day publish a revised omnibus of the first three novels.

Here is a small piece of book four, though--(rough draft)--just because you care: :cool:

Timrod sat at his usual post within Cangara Epsilon, the most remote space station in the Brin Star System. It orbited the large gas giant planet of Maroosh, the sixth planet in that system.

“Hey you @#$%, I told you to check the @#$% deep watch camera! Do I have to put you on report again!?”

Timrod’s guts twisted in a knot at the sound of his boss’ profanity-laden voice. The man was a complete jerk, though Timrod knew he had been lax in his duties this time. His anger didn’t flare quite as hot at the rebuke as it normally would. He switched to the camera in question without responding, as his boss moved on down the hall to the next observation station to harass Jenli. He never treated her as severely though. Timrod thought the old man may be sweet on her. Timrod broke from his thoughts and looked up at his monitor. The camera showed only blackness where there should be a multitude of stars. He squinted in confusion, and then adjusted his magnification back and forth. When he reduced the magnification to its greatest extent, he could see stars around the edge of a huge, rough sphere. His jaw fell open. He stood and ran down the hall in a panic, screaming his boss’ name, “Forix! Forix!”

The man popped his scowling face out of the open door to Jenli’s station room and yelled, “What the @#$% is it, Timrod!? Why the @#$% are you hollering like a madman!?”

Timrod screeched to a halt before his boss. The look on his face communicated volumes, and before he could say a word, Forix’s expression changed to one of grave concern. Forix directed, “Show me,” as he followed the frantic Timrod back to his station. Jenli was right behind them.

Forix muscled Timrod aside to look at his monitor. Jenli rose on her toes, trying to gain a peek at the screen. Forix’s mouth dropped open as he reached for the magnification adjustment. When he found it was already at its lowest setting, his face drained of even more color. He slowly stepped to the side as Jenli pushed her way between the two men. Soon all three were standing there in silence, jaws hanging.

Five seconds later the space station was struck by a rock the size of a small island! It was moving at a speed approximate to an Earthly three hundred thousand miles per hour. The three people, the huge space station, and everyone else aboard, were violently rendered into dust-sized particles in the twinkling of an eye. Trailing dust and fine debris from the space station, the huge asteroid continued its headlong charge into the atmosphere of the gas giant before it. Many other asteroids, some smaller, and some larger than itself, shared its fate. Suddenly, the whole far side of the gas giant flared with massive eruptions of fire, exploding gas, and rock. The gas giant wobbled in its orbit, but obstinately held together. Its moons were not as fortunate though. They were rent asunder by the massive debris field from beyond the star system. The moons broke apart and added to the meteoric cloud of destruction sweeping from outer space into the Brin Star System.

I know some people may disagree with this but in all honesty, my favorite books are the Harry Potter series.

One of my favorites is: Flags of our Fathers by James Bradley! It's SO good! I love history! :D (Especially about WWII)

[truster]

Fiction: either Lord of the Rings or Crime and Punishment.

Non-fiction: Wild at Heart.

[Buttabean]

I love anything by Nick Hornby. :) "High Fidelity," "How to be Good," "Long Way Down," etc. Very fun British humor.

John Grisham is my second favorite author, and "A Painted House" or "Time To Kill" are my favorites of his.

[GoofyGomer08]

Jesus Freaks by dcTalk. Im in the middle of it right now but it is really good. Its something that every Jesus Freak needs to pick up and read.
It also makes me grateful that I live in America

[ExtravagantlyLoved]

I know some people may disagree with this but in all honesty, my favorite books are the Harry Potter series.
I don't disagree. The only book I read more than those is the Bible.

[Mandy Robbins]

Under the Overpass is a great book too. It's non-fiction, where these two guys live liked homeless people, and how the churches reacted to them in each town.

[Buttabean]

Jesus Freaks by dcTalk. Im in the middle of it right now but it is really good. Its something that every Jesus Freak needs to pick up and read.

I really enjoyed that book. :D That one and "The Road" (I think that's the title, anyway) that's affiliated with Jars of Clay. I read them around the same time, and its good too. :)

[ginaree]

Right now I am reading "My Heart's Cry" and it's not too shabby.

I like anything by Max Lucado. I would love to buy all of his books.

My other fave is "Hinds Feet on High Places" by Hannah Hurnard. It's a (long)children's book, but it is very precious to me, because I read it when I was a baby in Christ.

I really enjoyed the Left Behind series. Whether or not it's biblically accurate, I see a bit of both on it. Nevertheless, one of my favorite series.

I've been wanting to read "Waking the Dead", so that will be next after I finish my selections from my last trip to the library.

I LOVE Max Lucado also !! One of my favorites is "Next Door Savior" I also love "One Incredible Moment" - Celebrating the Majesty of the Manger. I am looking for "An Angel's Story" but can't seem to find a copy of it.

[pamcharlie]

Anything written by joyce meyer , i like max lacardo too, and i love the chronicles of narnia and lord of the rings (i need to finish reading the magicians nephew since it is not too long to go until prince caspian )

[rich-in-grace]

The Shack by William P. Young... best book ever.

"better watch those greens honey, those things can give you the trots" Papa.

[GuitarNut]

I would have to say the best book I've read yet is THR3E by Ted Dekker, hes an excellent author. I also like Dee Henderson, and Terri Blackstock.

[SusyQ]

Redeeming Love by Francine Rivers has to be one of the best books I have ever read. I don't usually read fiction but someone told me I had to read it....NOW I'm hooked on ALL Francine Rivers books! You don't feel like you are reading fiction as it really works on your heart and draws you closer to the Lord. Her books suck your heart in. She is a very gifted writer!

[micahsky]

Eragon & Eldist..loved them both and dont like one more than the other.
But if I had to choose I'd say Eldist.

[Genna14]

Geeze I have read so many great books...

Pride and Prejudice- Jane Austen
Gone With The Wind- Margaret Mitchell
Frankenstein- Mary Shelley
Dracula-Bram Stoker
To Kill a Mockingbird- Harper Lee
My Antonia- Willa Cather
Where the Heart Is- Billie Letts

[lilmikey]

I like anything by Jack Higgins except for a book called Memoirs of a Dance Hall Romeo about a young mans experience with various women. It's kinda like one of those andolescent tales of his "discovery" if you know what I mean.:D ;)

I guess some liked it because Higgins tried something completly new(he writes military thrillers). I thought however that it was rather pointless.

[lilmikey]

I fprgot that I had already posted in this thread a long time ago:D :D

[blue eyed merle]

Soul Cravings -- Erwin Raphael McManus

Waking the Dead and The Journey of Desire -- by John Eldrege

The Sacred Romance -- John Eldredge & Brent Curtis

I have started on another McManus book and have a Eldredge book in line to follow.

[TDub]

I'm reading Stephen King's 'Salem's Lot. Creepy! I have so many favorites, but since I'm ready that - I'll say it's my fav.

My second favorite is by Dean Koontz: False Memory.

[Lynes]

I have so many, I can't chose a favorite!
In no particualr order, my favorites are:
-It's Not About Me by Max Lucado
-Save Me From Myself by Brian Welch
-The Grief Observed by CS Lewis
-Confessions/City of God by St. Augustine
-The Real Me by Natalie Grant
-Much Ado About Nothing by Shakesphere

[NurseBettyLu]

Voyage of the Dawn Treader. I actually have parts of it memorized.

[HumanityisSaved]

This is one of my favs I love the cover art too

[Unstereotypical]

DragonLance - "The Legend of Huma".


Awesome fantasy book.

[Salome]

DragonLance - "The Legend of Huma".


Awesome fantasy book.

By Weis and Hickman?

I think I read some of their Dragonlance books when I was in high school.

[Unstereotypical]

Well, Tracy Hickman and Marget Weis had a lot to do with the overall storyline of it, but it was a guy named Richard Knaak who wrote it.


This book is a must read if you even remotely like Fantasy. Every sort of Fantasy topic is mentioned in this book. This is a whole portrait of all Fantasy scenes.


Huma is what DragonLance is centered on. Everything revolves around that one man in that entire bookseries.


He was a knight who didn't think he had what it took to be in the knighthood, and come to find out, through supernatural means, he becomes the biggest hero that the land had ever had or ever will have.

I read this book a few years ago for the first time. I had always wanted to read this, but never got around to it, and I am so glad that I did finally got to read this. It was worth every word printed on every page.

I have never read a better fantasy book than this.

[Howlin' Wolf]

-Confessions/City of God by St. Augustine

I read Confessions a few months ago.
