Your Favorite Book...

midnight's children by salmon rushdie,

 

it just weaves around and around and everytime you turn a page, a new thread is tied into the whole and the picture is that little bit closer to being complete.

 

simply wonderful.

 

funny, sad, magical.

i have trouble getting into him. in one book he spent a good 20 pages explaining how an atomic bomb works, and quite frankly, i just don't care. he goes far to in depth into military strategy and technology for me. it's just not my thing. i can see where someone would like him, though 8)

i more or less liked the hunt for red october. outside of that, i haven't particularly enjoyed anything.

 

oh, and i know he's a childrens author, but i like lemony snicket. as a librarian, my bosses make me read all kinds of books incase someone asks for advice on what to grab, and i can say that his stuff is as good as good as most adult fiction authors.

"A Separate Peace" by John Knowles. I loved the love-hate friendship dynamic between the two characters. I've lived near a prep school for 13 years (this year I'm actually going to it), so the story hit pretty close to home. Plus, it's just very well-written. Very fine book indeed :D

20 pages to explain how an atomic bomb works? Geez, that could be explained in under 20 sentances.

 

Anyways, my favourite book would probrably have to be Hyperspace by Michio Kaku. (I think I spelled that more or less right.) Compleat Cat by Cleveland Amory was neat as well.
