The best novel you have read

The besty book i ever read was House of Sand and Fog, I loved it more for the characters than for the story. I could really connect with everyone in the book and there didn't seem to be a true hero.

I've read many books and it's hard to pick a number #1. The most recent that stood out was, Pillars of the Earth by Ken Follet. He's a great writer and the book was captivating. It really touched me more that any novel has in a long time! It's 1000 pages and there are no idle paces, it's the kind you don't want to stop and rest! I'd put this on my top 5 books, I'm 61 yrs. old and have a lot of books under my belt so don't take this lightly! tdemex

"Phantom" by Susan Kay.

"All I Really Need to Know I Learned in Kindergarten" by Robert Fulghum.

"The Only Alien on the Planet" by Kristen D. Randle.

"The Only Alien on the Planet" is geared for a teen audience, but it is VERY well written and I highly recommend it to anyone who is desiring to learn more about the human condition, mind control, and child abuse.

One of my favorite novels of all time is Tuesdays with Morrie. That book just has such a great message. I've read it several times and well I enjoy it over and over again. I definitely recommend this book to everyone! It's a short read too - it will grab your interest and you can easily finish it in one sitting if you have the time.

My favourite book would have to be Patriot Games by Tom Clancy, I am not sayin gthat it is the best book ever written but is interesting throughout and as such I have read it at least a dozen times in the last ten years.

The Bible is probably the best book I have read. Not because it is a religious book. But because of it's practical teachings which can be applied to relationships or business.

Basically the laws of modern government and western civilization is based on this book.

hey there. I love to read and really should take more time to do so. I have a few books that I go back to.

Veronica Decides to Die by Paulo Coehlo is one of my favourites. It makes you stop and think about your own life and mortality. He writes some amazing stories that are magical and also make you stop and think.

a hundred years of solitude by gabriel garcia marquez is magical and really unforgettable. i don't have a best preference for any book because i don't believe that a certain book, even one that has greatly affected that person, could be better than other books. but then again, calling someone your best friend doesn't mean that friend is the best person on earth! so, the best novel i've read is a tragedy - jude the obscure by thomas hardy.

hi,i`m judy,now i`m reading "thick face black heart",it is totally different from all the book that i have read till now,almost all the book published legally to tell people do good things,use a true heart to make friends,to devote,but in this book,it teach people to use mask,to find the dark aspect in human beings.i think it is irony.

The best novel I have read right now is the Time Traveler's Wife. I can actually see why this one ended up on the Best Seller list. Most books that are there I don't see it. Although, of course, because I'm a writer I someday want to end up on it. Most of the books the American public buys are just a bunch of crap and not actual literature but this book is different.
