And about a MILLION more!!! But then you would be reading the list for about an hour!!!!! Anyway those are some of my all time favorites. If anyone is curious about one of the books let me know and I will tell you what they are about! Oh by the way, Admins you can do this too if you want!
Oh, I have so many favorites and not enough time, but one of my lesser-known favorites is The Mozart Season by Virginia Euwer Wolff.

I've read so many amazing books, I'm sure I'll only forget about a zillion in making a list. But, off the top of my head, here are twenty:
Anything by Shannon Hale;
All of Jasper Fforde's books (truly and honestly the most unique and quirky books I've ever read);
Ender's Game, by Orson Scott Card (as well as the books following and its companion series);
Criss Cross, by Lynne Rae Perkins (a Newbery Award winner);
Kira Kira, by Cynthia Kadohata (also a Newbery);
The Book Thief, by Markus Zusak;
All of Brandon Sanderson's books (that I've read);
The Fablehaven series, by Brandon Mull;
Reckless, by Cornelia Funke (though if she doesn't write a sequel, I may have to consider blackmailing her);
Eragon and Eldest by Christopher Paolini (I am most anxiously waiting our next trip to the library to check out Brisingr);
Obviously, all of the Harry Potter books;
The Lord of the Rings -- the father of fantasy as we know it;
Sherlock Holmes, the original ones by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle;
Anything by Gerald N. Lund (especially Fire of the Covenant);
The Percy Jackson books;
The Redwall chronicles (I'm not normally prone to books about sentient animals going to battle, but these are oddly enthralling);
Chalice, by Robin McKinley (forever a favorite);
The Screwtape Letters and the Chronicles of Narnia by C.S. Lewis;
Leyla; the Black Tulip, by Alev Lytle Croutier;
And last, but most certainly not least, the Keys to the Kingdom series by Garth Nix -- never has an ending left me so completely stunned.
Thanks to everyone for their lists of favorite books....I'm definitely must check out a few of them next time I visit the library!
