My favorite book of all time probably has to be "The Wind-up Bird Chronicle" it's quite a surreal tale of a man, his lost wife and cat. A Prostitute of the mind, and a well. I would go into more detail but it is one of those books that you can't really explain, you just need to read it.

Of Mice and Men kicks ass, and I hear you J about the Count of Monte Cristo. The other night my girl and I were at Barnes and Noble and they have a "Classics" section, complete with such works as Tom Sawyer,Treasure Island etc etc. I thought to myself "I need to read ALL of these before I die"

i didn't read many books that aren't school related, but im glad that i had to read some of the books for english classes. there's one i have recommended to several of my friends, it's called Into Thin Air by Jon Krakauer. the book's full title said it all <<Into Thin Air: A Personal Account of the Mt. Everest Disaster>> . it's a non-fiction, true story. if yall got time, should check it out, you won't be disappointed.

I liked Of Mice and Men but to each his own. Have you read Animal Farm by George Orwell? Thats a freakin great classic.
