My favorite book of all time is 'Pretty Little Liars' by Sara Shepard. It is a real mystery and a page-turner. I read the entire book in a few days. I borrowed it from a friend, because she said it was a great book. We later found out it was a series. Overall, it was a very suspenseful book, and I could read it any day.

ReplyDeleteMy favorite book of all time is 'Perfect' by Sara Shepard. This book is very detailed and so suspensful, that while I was reading it, I wasn't able to put the book down. I've read this book twice because I like it so much.
ReplyDeleteMy favorite book of all time is the series, "Percy Jackson and The Olympians." I like this series because it involves the Greek gods and goddesses in the modern world and I happen to like myths. The book is also very funny and easy to understand.
ReplyDeleteMy favorite book of all time is "Where the Red Fern Grows" by Wilson Rawls. This is my favorite book because it is a very real and intriguing noval. The characters are very beliveable.

"Milkweed" follows the life of Misha, a boy living throught the Holocaust.He has no home or family,lives in the streets, and steals to live."They Cage The Animals At Night" is an autobiography by Jennings Michael Burch describing his early life in the foster home system.
ReplyDeleteMy favorite book of all time is "Brett Favre A Packer Fan's Tribute" by Tom Kertshcer. This is my favorite book because I am a huge Packers Fan and Brett Favre is my all time favorite player.
ReplyDeleteMy favorite book of all time is called "Impulse" by Ellen Hopkins, because its tells about three teens going through life while wanting to take their own life. One almost shoots himself, one slit her wrists, and the other who overdoses. The three teens meet at a phsych hospital where a love triangle forms. This book tells of real life situations that everyday teens go through even though this situation isn't boardcasted as much
ReplyDeleteMy favorite book of all-time is 'Cane Mutiny: How the Miami Hurricanes Overturned the Football Establishment' by Bruce Feldman. This book is about the University of Miami football program and how they changed the college football scene forever. I really enjoyed this book because I love football and think Miami is one of the most exciting programs.
ReplyDeleteMy favorite book of all time is "The Little Engine That Could" because it taught me a very important life lesson and it's a really awesome book
ReplyDelete"The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time" is my favorite book because it has a fairly dull premise. However, the book is interesting because we see it all through the eyes of an autistic child. We see his 'emotions,' thoughts, and distorted reactions. It is a very uplifting book, and it tells us that anyone can do anything, and nothing can stand in their way.
ReplyDeleteMy favorite book of all time is "Witch Catcher" by Mary Downing Hahn. It is very suspicious, and fear- filled in every page. It is about a daughter and her dad, who inherited a castle. And in that castle is a mysterious forest and beneath the forest there is set of stairs. There it goes finding unbeleivable truths that you would never suspect. I like this book because it shows how family sticks together and got each other's back. Sometimes being too curious causes problems that you would never want to get into. I just couldn't stop turning the pages!
ReplyDeleteMy favorite book is "Tuesdays with Morrie" by Mitch Albom. To me, this was the kind of book when at times you felt bored but by the end you were in tears. This book is about life's lessons, and it is a truly touching story. I think it is a good book for anyone and everyone to read. I really enjoyed reading "Tuesdays with Morrie" and appreciated it even more when I was finished.
ReplyDeleteMy favorite book of all time is "The Lost Symbol" by Dan Brown because is it extremely suspenseful and a nonstop page turner. And to me it is fascinating to all the secrets and symbols the main character knows and discovers throughout the book that help come to a shocking ending and incredible ending to the book.
ReplyDeleteMy favorite book is " Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows" by J.K. Rowling. I chose this book because i saw the first 5 movies and decided i wanted to start reading the books too. It immediately became my favorite series of books, and even though it came out in the summer it only took me a couple of days to finish the last Harry Potter book.
ReplyDeleteI can not choose a favorite book, many books are great but there is one that stands out to me. It is called "Wake". It is the first book in the series entitled Wake writen by Lisa McMann. I like this book because it is very suspenseful and well writen. It always left me wanting more. So much so that I can't wait for the third book in the series "Gone" to come out this Febuary. I recommend this book to anyone that appreciates a good story.
ReplyDeleteMy favorite book is "The Magician" by Michael Scott. It is from the series "The Secrets of The Immortal Nicholas Flamel". I like this book and series because it has the perfect mix of magic, monsters, and history all in one series. I also feel it is well writen.

ReplyDeletemy favorite book of all time is "Shadow of the wind". It is a great novel and it kept me guessing until the end. I really like books that are suspenseful and it has a nice fantasy twist.
ReplyDeleteMy favorite book has to be "The Summer I Turned Pretty" by Jenny Han. This book is amazing because it contains so many life lessons that could benefit many girls my age. Not only that, but even though it can be found under fiction, everything in the story is completely possible and always leaves you begging for more.
ReplyDeleteOne of my favorite books is "The Tenth Circle" written by Jodi Picoult. This book kept me on the edge of my chair the entire time while reading it. I honestly could not put the book down and I have read it multiple times. Jodi Picoult is also one of my favorite authors.
ReplyDeleteMy favorite book of all time would have to be "The Big Field" by Mike Lupica. It is a very awesome baseball book. I never wanted to stop reading it until the very end, and since then, I have read it multiple times. I love the type of books when it keeps you moitivated to continue reading because you feel that another thing happens.
ReplyDeleteMy favorite book is The Glass Castle by Jeannette Walls. Her story about her in poverty was really sad and the way she put words was really amazing. She stayed strong through out her life, and she made a wonderful memoir of her childhood.
ReplyDeletei really dont have a favorite book because i havent read a book in a while, so i cant really think of one. If I were to pick 1 that ive read it would be Peter Pan, because its the same as the move and i like the movie as well.
ReplyDeleteI can't really say I have a favorite book because there are just too many. However anything by James Patterson is usually a favorite for me. I especially like the Alex Cross Series and the Maximum Ride Series. Alex Cross is more of a mystery and detective novel genre while Maximum Ride is more action and fantasy. Who doesn't like mystery with a little bit of action?
ReplyDeleteI can not say what my favorite BOOK of all time is but my favorite series of all time is the Artemis Fowl series. The author (some irish dude that I forgot the name to) isn't very famous but he does make some great books too. The Artemis Fowl series is about some rich snotty genius boy becoming a rich genius good boy with the help of his supernatural fairy friends. I'm just a fan of the fantasy (it has fan in fantasy) and that book has been one of the few that I voluntarily read.
ReplyDeleteMy favorite book of all time is "The Hunger Games" by Suzanne Collins. This book has a great story line and caught my attention from the very beginning. It is full of many surprises which is one of the many reasons as to why this book is my favorite. There is a sequel to this novel and I can't say that I'm not extremely excited to read it.
ReplyDeleteMy favorite book of all time is "Twisted" by Laurie Halse Anderson. I liked this book soo much that I finished it in one night. The author writes in a way that I felt I was able to connect to the book. The story is also very good and makes it hard for you to put the book down. I haven't read any other books by this author, but i probably will soon.
ReplyDeleteMy favorite book of all time is The End the final book in the Series of Unfortunate Events. I like this book because i like the series, and i thought this wrapped up what seemed to be an endless series.
ReplyDeleteMy favorite book of all time is "Catching Fire" by Suzanne Collins. It is a sequel to the book "The Hunger Games". The book is fulled with adventure and it takes you on many twists and turns, throughout the story line, that you would never expect. My friend introduced me to this series and I've been hooked since the beginning.
ReplyDeleteMy favorite book of all times would have to be "Speak" by Laurie Halse Anderson. I read this book last year and thought it was pretty good. It was an easy read and not to complex however it mixed together life as a victim and life as a highschool student.
ReplyDeleteMy favorite book is Breaking Dawn by Stephanie Meyer. It is my favorite out of the whole twilight series because I think it is the one that was most interesting and I could hardly ever put it down.
ReplyDeleteMy favorite book of all time is "The Da Vinci Code" by Dan Brown. I read this book last year, and I could barely put it down. The plot line of the book is amazing, with twists and turns and details that keep you wanting more. The characters are relatable but with some traits and backgrounds that are slightly unimaginable. It was not the easiest book to read, which is why I liked it more. It was a challange to stay with the riddles and new characters, and I enjoyed the challange. It made me think of a new concept in life and with religion and artwork. It was probably one of the best written books I have ever read.
ReplyDeleteI don't actually have a favorite book but I o like a couple of series of books. One of the books I like is the Harry Potter series because of it's mystery and and also the Stormbreaker series with it's action and suspense.
ReplyDeleteMy favorite book of all time is The Godfather by Mario Puzo. Even though it came out in 1969 its a classic. I like The Godfather because its a story about the mafia in the 40's and 50's and the mafia is really cool.
ReplyDeleteMy favorite book is The Catcher in the Rye by JD Salinger. Holden is such a well written character and he is really interesting to listen to. It also has a really simple plot but it keeps your attention.
ReplyDeleteMy favorite book is Alice's Adventures in Wonderland /And Looking Through the Looking Glass by: Lewis Carroll. I recieved this book on my 5th birthday and have loved it ever since. this book really expands the childhood story of Alice and gives so much detail that you really think you are experiencing what you are reading.
ReplyDeleteMy favorite book of all time is "Double Helix" by Nancy Werlin. It is very suspenseful thriller. I highly recommend this book to be read by all.

ReplyDeleteMy favorite book of all time is The Thief Lord by Cornelia Funke. The book is by far the most detailed story I have ever read. Every small thing like what the characters are wearing and how they talking is well described and the plot kept me guessing to the very end.
ReplyDeleteMy favorite book is "Shop Class as Soulcraft" by Matthew Crawford. This book is about a guy who majored in Law and had a great future for him, but decided to work in the Automotive industry. He proves his point how that Highschools should focus more on the interesting electives, instead of the required classes. At first I didn't find this book very appealing, but after reading it for a while I found out that most of the stuff he is saying is true. I recommend this book because it is interesting and makes a lot of sense for highschool kids.

ReplyDeleteEven though I do not have a favorite book of all times, one of the books that i would highly recommend to my peers is The house of the Scorpion by Nancy Farmer. This book is about a young boy named Matt who lives in a cabin his whole life. After finding out he is a clone, his whole life changes as he realizes he is viewed to others as an "it". This book portrays many different scientific ideas as well as moral problems that are present in our society today. Even if you do not like to read a lot, this book is a must. It is written in a captive language that will not let you put it down, I promise. [:
my favorite book would probably be twilight because it has a great story line. the book is told with so much detail. it is a series and the other books are also really good. i just really love the whole plot of twilight. it is about a girl who falls in love with a vampire and all the trouble that comes with that. it is the only book i really liked reading because i never got bored.
ReplyDeleteHi, I'm Alec Wilkas. My favorite book of all time would probably be Farenheit 451 because many of the inventions and scientific discoveries in the book exist today, even though the book was written in the 1950's.
ReplyDeleteMy favorite book of all time is Wizards First Rule. Enjoy this book because it contains a lot of suspense, mystery and loyalty in it even though it was written in 1994. I also like this book because it is a television series on WGN on Saturday.
