My favourite authors and novels are:

J.R.R. Tolkein's The Hobbit and The Lord of the Rings heart

Philip Pullman's His Dark Materials (Northern Lights etc)

J.K. Rowling's Harry Potter Books (am waiting eagerly for the final book!)

Anne Rice's Vampire Chronicles (Interview With The Vampire, The Vampire Lestat, Queen of the Damned)

Neil Gaiman's Neverwhere

Dan Brown's Angels and Demons (I've read the DaVinci Code and in my opinion it's not as good as this, especially for a scientist like me wink )

I love the Left Behind book series. Although I haven't gotten all that far in the kids series yet. sweatdrop I think up to book twelve.

I'm reading a book right now called Twilight...it's also a very good book. I like it. ^^;; Although I like mostly anything that has to do with vampires.

Memoirs of a Geisha was a very good book, I loved it.

I just love reading, period. >>;;

JRR Tolkien. I love his books, although I never finished The Hobbit. >>;;

Hm...what else o.o

I still like Animorphs. >>;; I dun think I'll ever grow out of them.

I loved Misty of Chintogue((Or however you spell it...)) Although o.o I haven't read it since I was little.

Little House books, I loved those too.

Yeah. >>;; Just about anything, although I really prefer vampire books. And books about ghosts and such things like that.

Bridge to Terabithia. Old book, but still rather good. Not very long, but I still liked it.

To many to list, really. ^^;;
