This is a question Books

We love books. Tell us about your favourite books and authors, and why they are so good. And while you're at it - having dined out for years on the time I threw Dan Brown out of a train window - tell us who to avoid.

Mixed bag
I love reading, however i used to hate it. Was absolutly crap at english literature at school. The height of my reading then was The Beano and Dandy.
Then near the end of my school years my Dad gave me one of his books. "The Magician" by Raymond E Feist. Su-perb!!! still one of my favourite books to date. I still remember the days and nights i lost sitting in my room with a cup of tea reading that book, wishing I was Pug.

I have lost count the number of copies i have bought over the years due to moving and lending out etc. There are currently 3 different versions of this book in my room right now!

When i fancy something a bit different i have read the likes of "Hotel Rwanda and To Shake Hands With the Devil" Both amasing books from both sides of the event.

I really enjoyed that trilogy, also. Feist's other books didn't do as much for me.

^^ This...
... is one of my favourite books and I still re-read it at least once a year. Everybody I've recommended it to has loved it and then recommended it to others in turn. It also made the BBC Big Read top 100 fiction books.

I keep meaning to reread but am afraid it wont be as good as I remember it being.
