I like SF, fantasy and horror books. My fave book is Master and Margarita by M. Bulgakov and my fave author is HP Lovecraft.

my fave book ever is "the catcher in the rye". i love this book and have read it abt 5 times in the last week. practically know what's going to happend next and never get bored of it.

also the hobbit is one great book too. i can't go on about it enough. and i bore everyone abt it anyway :P

oh and john grisham books are fantastic. i've read every one of them - my fave being ' a time to kill'. that is one cool book.

stephen king for me isn't that great..i've just finished shawkshank redemption and apt pupil. the one thing that really freaked me out in apt pupil was the bit abt the cat and the oven..that was scary..them killing all the winos weren't that bad..but the bit abt the cat and the oven..man that was freaky..then he went on abt the dogs..wow

I absolutely love reading!!!

My favourite writers are the Brontë sisters, and my all-time favourite is "Jane Eyre" But I also like Jane Austen, Elizabeth Gaskell, Virginia Woolf, etc I could go on...

I also like Harry Potter a lot

I don't like SF though. I like sort or everyday stories, if you know what I mean, something I can picture easily.

I once tried to read The Lord Of the Rings but found it quite boring They only seemed to run and run through forests and the like... :P

Definitely a Stephen King fan.

I read all of Amy Tan's books - she is awesome.

John Grisham and Edgar Allan Poe

Grisham because I have always been interested in law stories.

Poe because he is a sick but talented writer.
