What are your top five favorite books? Yes, five is a VERY small number to describe your favorites, but five narrows things down more. Mine:

1. Star Split, written by Kathryn Lasky- Absolutely amazing. This book takes place in the future. Darci Murlowe is just your average thirteen year old girl, until she goes on a rock climbing trip- to discover she has a clone. Much more complex than that, but to find out how it's complex, read it.

2. Harry Potter and the Order of the Pheonix, written by J.K. Rowling- Very well written, my favorite of the Harry Potter series.

3. The Princess Diaries Series, written by Meg Cabot- These books are awesome and a half. Don't judge them on the crappy Disney movies that are supposedly "based" on them. The books in the series, in order of what was written first: The Princess Diaries, Princess In The Spotlight, Princess In Love, Princess in Waiting, Project Princess, and Princess In Pink. NOTE: You'd probably enjoy these books more if you read them while being over thirteen. There's a bit of mature content.

4. Harry Potter and The Goblet of Fire, written by J.K. Rowling- Very good book, my second favorite in the Harry Potter series.

5. A Ring of Endless Light, written by... er... ?- Very nicely written book.

1. Horsefeathers
2. Elizabeth Gail
3. Winnie the Horse Gentler

I have no more.

Let me think...in no particular order:

1. Molly Moon Series (2 books that I know of)...They are supposed to be for up to 12 years old, but I loved them both. So did my 14 year old friend. So I'd recommend them to girls, not boys. Although 4 or 5 of my boy friends have liked them, so there you go.

2. Watership Down...Beautiful book. Beautifully written, beautiful plot, beautiful theme. I recommend this to EVERYONE!

3. The Life of Pi...Wow. This one is the most meaningful book I've ever read. It's really hard to explain, so you'd have to read it to understand.

Can't think of any others.

I'll put all of the 5 Harry Potter books in one line.
Tuck Everlasting
I have Lived a Thousand Years
The Outsiders

......
These are what come to mind, despite that fact that I read all off them at least 5 years ago (excluding the HP series)

I don't like rating things, so I'll just name 5 favorites in no particular order.

The Da Vinci Code by Dan Brown-This is one of my favorite books of all time, actually. (If my dad heard that, he'd cringe.) I'd reccomend it to anyone who likes a good thriller.

Animal Farm by George Orwell-One of my teachers reccomended it to the class, so I went to the library and got it. It was a quick read (I loved the pictures, though.) and I liked the last line so much. It went something like "you couldn't differ man from pig now." The ending was a bit sad, and I still haven't gotten around to reading 1984.

The Egyptian by Mika Waltari-Though the book didn't really interest me much plot wise, it was a great read to see Egyptian history played through a man's lifetime.

Can't really think of anything else at the moment..but I'm trying to expand my horizons on books, though it isn't rather successful. (I almost fell asleep reading Mark Twain. x_x Les Miserables was rather hard to read, too.) I'm thinking about reading The Divine Comedy, though. Poems aren't that hard, right? ._.

Mine are:
The Princess Diaries Series

The Gossip Girl Series

The A List

and that's already over five. I can't stand the so called classics we have to read at school. Like my least favorite book ever... Great Expectations.

1. all of the LOTR books
2. all the HP books
3. Eragon
4. Dragonlance Chronials

This is tough. I don't think I can condense my favourite books to just five titles. Here's a few books and series that I enjoy very much:

- The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy "Trilogy," Douglas Adams
- Stardust, Neil Gaiman
- Slaughterhouse-Five, Kurt Vonnegut
- The Abhorsen Trilogy, Garth Nix
- Good Omens, Neil Gaiman and Terry Pratchett
- His Dark Materials Trilogy, Philip Pullman

I have a hard time rating things so these are not in order.

-All three Lord of the Rings by J.R.R Tolkien
-Princess Diaries series by Meg Cabot
-The Last Unicorn by Peter S. Beagle
-The Hunter's Moon by O. R. Melling (there are quite a few books with almost the same name O.o)
-Star Split by Kathryn Lasky

Lord...This is hard.....

1.A Game of Thrones By George R.R Martin-I'm not even halfway through it,(800 pages!) and I'm already in love. Its just plain good. Really gory and other thing, though. 17+
2.Deenie, written by Judy Blume- Deenie is the story of a beautiful girl, Deenie, whose mother is obbesed with making her a model. Then she gets Scoliosis and is forsed to were a brace for the next four years. The most banned of Judy Blume's books for its urm..lets just call it "mature" content. Rated 13+
3.Violet & Claire, written by Francesca Lia Block- Violet is a dark teenage screen writter, Claire is a fairy-like teenage poet. This is there story of them and L.A. Its to complex to say anything else. Rated 17+
4.Dangerous Angels, written by Francesca Lia Block- I bet many of us of heard of Weetzie Bat, and now the books are in one big volume. Sink your teath into Weetzie Bat, Witch Baby, Cherokee Bat and the Goat Guys, Missing Angel Juan, and Baby Bebop. Rated 15+
5.Tiger Eyes, written by Judy Blume I bet a good chunk of you have heard of Los Alamos, New Mexico. Not really the best place to live. And most of the books about here ramble about things you already know. Fiction takes place during the 40s.
Tiger Eyes is different. After Davey's father is killed, she, her mother, and younger brother come to live with relatives in Los Alamos.
Thats really all I can say. Just read it already! Rather 13+

Ehehehe. Another Eragon lover.

Here are mine...

1. Eragon- Christopher Paolini
2. The White Dragon- Anne McCaffrey
3. All LOTR Books: J.R.R. Tolkien
4. All HP Books: J.K. Rowling
5. Rest of DRoP Books: Anne McCaffrey

If you haven't noticed, I'm a fantasy lover. (Well, obviously, since I'm obsessed with dragons. XD)

I love DRoP, but they aren't in my top five. They come in 6th, though.

Anyway, why does she get 9 firelizards and I get none? I want one!

In no particular order because they are equally loved.

- The Chrysalids
- Spellfall
- The Little Prince
- The Catcher in the Rye
- White Oleander - omg I can't believe I forgot this book. I read it last year for my English ISP and I couldn't put it down.

Most of mine are series...

1.) Harry Potter series, by J.K. Rowling. I can't seem to get enough of this series. I'm currently reading CoS for the 8th or 9th time right now, and I'm loving every moment of it.

These are in no paticular order:

Princess Diaries series, by Meg Cabot. Funny, and more interesting than the movie versions. Like everyone else here said, there IS some mature content.

Circle of Magic Quartet, by Tamora Pierce. I love the plotline, and the whole thing with the four different elements of magic (fire, water, air, earth). I haven't finished the series yet (can't get ahold of book 3 or 4 at the library, too cheap to buy them), but I plan to as soon as possible.

The Series of Unfortunate Events, by Lemony Snicket. An easy read (book 11 is coming out soon!), but sarcastically funny nonetheless.

The Giver, by Lois Lowry. Well written book. I really enjoyed discussing it in class. I was a little disappointed with the ending, but I understand why she wrote it that way.

There's more, but these are the ones I can re-read and never get sick of them.

Wow, I can't believe I forgot that one! That's one of my all-time favorites, and the rest of Lois Lowry's books are fantastic too. I couldn't put any of them down.
