I have two favorites!
One is Fantasy and I don't have one favorite book, I have a favorite trilogy The Trinity by Fiona McIntosh. I actually cried at the end of this trilogy. McIntosh is a very powerful writer, I felt a deep connection with all of the characters and by the end they seemed as real to me as the people I meet day to day.
My other favorite is Sci-Fi. My favorite Sci-Fi book is Light of Other Days by Arthur C. Clarke and Stephen Baxter. If you like Sci-Fi and are yet to read this book you MUST! I can hear your poor imagination screaming to be let out!
They explore time travel in a very innovative way and also touch on the possibilities of mankind's origins. Very powerful book that will have you thinking long after you've put it down.
....Huh, I started with the intent to list my favorites, and finished with a book review. lol

I really like sci-fi , fantasy, and stuff about the supernatural in general. Twilght etc. and Eragon (eldest). I am absolutely obsessed with the many works of Madeline L-Engle! I'm also really into action-packed books. Like, Artemis Fowl (isn't really as action packed, but it's an amazing book), and Tamora Pierce is an amazing author too. My friend recently got me hooked on diana wynne jones. She writes about magic and all sorts of stuff.
