Eragon, Eldest and Brisingr Christopher Paolini

 

[Cyan]

Like the author's thread, I didn't read a lot of "real" book, so here are the ones I liked :

- Lord of the ring, The silmarillion, Bilbo, etc. whatever is on Tolkien's middle earth

- Earth's children (J.M. Auel),
great series from a kro-magnon (prehistoric) child who lose her tribe after an earthquake and is adopted by another and less advanced tribe.

 

[Pyrofyr]

If you read any book from this decade, make it Life of Pi.

Egad I hate it. So far most of the people I met either love it a hell lot or hate it a hell lot.

I love fantasy stuff so...
Jim Butcher's Harry Dresden Series. It's the best of the modern fantasy mystery series I have read.

Any book of Haurki Murakami. But Wind up Bird Chronicles is a especially huge mindfuck.

Neil Gaiman's Stardust still remains deep in my heart after years.

A Song of Ice and Fire. . if you haven't read this, you should read it. Now.

The Chaos Walking series by Patrick Ness are great books but not one that I would read again.

 

[DozerGuy]

Tibetan Book of The Dead.

 

[BedtimeGuy]

-brave new world
-all the troubles of the world (short story by isaac asimov)
-the host (just because the twilight author wrote it, doesn't mean it's not awesome.)

you should add a poll like thing (manually count the votes for each book) like dice's essentials lists, then this thread could be stickied!

 

[Satangel]

Eragon, Eldest and Brisingr Christopher Paolini

Oh yeah, this too.

 

[outgum]

- Twilight
- New Moon
- Ecilpse
- Breaking Dawn

Oh and Midnight Sun

 

[Veho]

Hitchhikers' Guide to the Galaxy
Nova (Samuel Delany)
Dune
Death and the Dervish (Meša Selimović)


There's a ton of books I like very very much but won't call them "favourite" because that would be watering the term down a bit.
