I mostly read fantasies, mysteries and a bit of sci-fi. I love when they're mixed! Therefore one of my favorites is the Lord Darcy series. It's mostly short stories, with one novel. It's about an alternate earth where King Richard didn't die and John never became king of England. The main characters are Lord Darcy and Sean O Lachlainn. Darcy is the chief investigator for the Duke of Normandy and Sean is his loyal assistant (he's a forensic sorcerer, kind of like a magic CSI.)
When I was a kid I read a lot of those Serendipity books. I couldn't get enough of them. I was still reading them in fifth grade and the librarian decided I was reading stuff that was below my level and forbade me from taking them out anymore. "Get chapter books," she said. Then I started reading every chapter book that had cats as the main character that I could lay hands on. I was an odd kid. ^^
I can't stand grauitous foul language and violence in books. As far as I'm concerned there is never a reason to use every curse word in existance in a book.
My first book... I don't remember it's name because I couldn't read yet. It had beautiful paintings of girls in old-fashioned dresses with bonnets and I would flip through the pages over and over, telling myself stories that went along with the pictures.
Last as in most recent, I'll assume. I'm currently re-reading Christopher Stasheff's Warlock series. I'm about midway through
The Warlock is Missing. Very good series! It's about psychic "witches" on another planet that was settled by folks from the Society for Creative Anachronists centruies ago. (It's set very much in the furture, obviously.)
