Well, this is the best topic to start off this new forum.  What are your favorite books and authors.  For me, my favorite book is Catch-22, by Joseph Heller.  I've given away many copies just because I feel so strongly about this book.  It is funny, witty and dark all at the same time.  I find the some of the situations...especially between Major Major and Yossarian to be very relevent to today's issues.

Jaws by Peter Benchly. I read this when i was in the 4th grade cause my friend told me it had a lot of dirty words in it. Well yeah it has a lot of foul language in it but it was still a good book. Thats the first novel i read. Since then Ive read so many and got so many favorites, so i pick my first one as my favorite. lol Grin
