    My very favorite book (Stephen King or otherwise, cry pardon) has to be The Time Traveler's Wife by Audrey Niffenegger. It's the most genuinely touching novel I've read, with starkly honest characters and nicely original plot. Sorry to gush, I just can't quite help it.

    My favorite book isn't a King book either, I'm afraid. That title goes to The Sound and the Fury. Accurate psychology and literature will always beat out just literature for me.

    But, well.....

    Ender's Game. There you go, one book. It's a must read.
    Ok, I've been thinking about it, and I changed my choice. Herman Wouk's Winds of War and War and Remembrance are one story, and some of the best reading i've ever done. I've read them both about 30 times, and I love them.
    "So many vows. They make you swear and swear. Defend the King, obey the King, obey your father, protect the innocent, defend the weak. But what if your father despises the King? What if the King massacres the innocent? It's too much. No matter what you do, you're forsaking one vow or another."

    Yes yes yes!! I read I AM LEGEND along with some of his other stories and I was mesmerized... I also love Phillip K. Dick (crazy guy) and The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy. Douglas Adams had some great quotes.

    I don't really know about a single favorite, but one title in particular comes to mind because it changed the way I thought about things--I thought I had it all figured out until I read this.

    Mother Night by Kurt Vonnegut.
