I honestly don't think I could claim any other book but The Complete Short Stories of Ernest Hemingway; Finca Vigia Edition as being my all time-number one favorite.

Right up there with it in the top 5 are:
Red Earth and Pouring Rain by Vikram Chandra
Veronika Decides to Die by Paulo Coelho
Hitchiker's Guide to the Galaxy (series) by Douglas Adams
High Fidelity by Nick Hornby

I never really got into The Crucible, but that was early high school for me. Great Gatsby is really good though! Have you read any of his short stories? He's written a few good short stories.

I have a really hard time picking a favourite anything, but I love 1984. The Lord of the Rings trilogy is a classic, of course (shut up, it's good.) If I had to pick a favourite graphic novel, I think it would actually be The Ticking by Renee French. It's weird, if you think things like that are weird, but it's good.

I can't say that i've ever read "The Ticking". I might have to look it up sometime.

And LoTR is just awesome, anyone who says differently is trying to sell you something...

Currently it would have to be The Alchemist by Paulo Coelho (Veronika was until I picked that one up)
All time fav. though would have to be Brave New World

yeah, Huxley wrote a great dystopian novel there. it far surpassed F451 as my fav dystopian novel when i read it.

in a way, the Westerfeld Uglies series kind of reminded me of Brave New World...

I've seen the Westerfeld Uglies series around in both libraries and bookstores and while I was working for BAM we sold a ton. I may have to pick one up for read.
