What's your favorite book? Mine is, "The Green Mile" by Stephen King. After watching most of the movie on a free t.v. program, I immediately wanted to read it and I think that the book is so much better than the movie. |

Superb film, great book. |

My favorite book is "To Kill a Mockingbird" by Lee Harper. I also like George Orwell's work. |

Miss James, you worldy scholar.. that's actually 'Harper Lee' link :) I don't read much, but Shawshank Redemption is a better film that Green Mile IMO. And a new special edition DVD is coming out Oct. 5. My favorite classic, because it took me months to get through it, is 'The Fountainhead' by Ayn Rand. |

I don't really read books, except for music related books and biographies. I like Johnny Green's book "A Riot Of Our Own - Night and Day With The Clash". That's my favourite I'd say. |

There are many, but the lats book I read was very fascinating: The Da Vinci Code |

Sidhartha, good story about trying to find out what our existence means in this world. Also, Ishmael I just read it for a class and it was pretty good. |

I loved "Of Mice and Men." That was the only book that has ever made me cry. Right now, I'm reading "Angela's Ashes" which is one of the most depressing books ever. It's still a great book though. |

I like "Hitchikers Guide to the Galaxy" "The Trench" and "Meg" Fav books as a Kid "Bridge to Terabithia" and "Matilda" "Kama Sutra: The Art of Lovemaking" Just kidding on this one. :^) "Muppets Read the ABC's" again, kidding :^P "Jaws" and "the Beast" and "Jurassic Park" Hey, I was really in to monster type books for a while. Hence, all the sharks and sea creatures, and Dinosaurs. And of course "The Bible" lol... |

The Chronicles of Thomas Covenant by Stephen Donaldson Anything to do with military history |
| Mrs.Taylor 20.09.2004 07:22 |
Still on Harry Potter and The Order of the Phoenix |
| AC 20.09.2004 10:23 |
Sorry Bob, but I can't find any link between the Chronicles of Thomas Covenant and military history (if they didn't change the books). Can you explain? |
| toodey 20.09.2004 10:52 |
I loved every minute of the green mile. |
| KillerQueen840 20.09.2004 14:30 |
I've read the Harry Potter series and think that they are great...but Green Mile was touching (even though it was fiction) to me...knowing that there must be quite a few innocent people that still get the death sentence (in limited places but still..). |
| KillerQueen840 20.09.2004 14:31 |
Also.. I see that you are new, toodey. Welcome to QZ, I sincerely hope that you get treated well and enjoy your time here! : ) |

lol GH - I'm scared to say...are rats going to eat my eyes out if I answer one way or the other? ;^) "Of Mice and Men" was a horrible book, imo. I couldn't wait to finish it. |
| SergeantPepperDG 20.09.2004 21:13 |
"Of Mice and Men" was so short. I finished it in 3 days. |
| MayFan 20.09.2004 21:21 |
I've been completely absorbed in Stephen King's The Dark Tower series. Also, The Talisman by King and Peter Straub. That book ruled!! |

You mentioned Orwell, so I was hoping you had read 1984. The answer is five, since the party was all about mind control. Still a fav of mine. No cookie for you. |
| deleted user 21.09.2004 08:36 |
Oh, okay, Chris. ;^P GH - I have read 1984 and nearly every other Orwell book. The reason I said the thing about the rats was cos when he was being questioned, they were threatening the main character with rats. I understood the question about the numbers - I was just trying to be humorous with my answer to you. lol Now give me a cookie, dagnabbit! :^) |
