Probably Hemingway or Heller, Catch-22 is my favourite book.

I'm currently obsessed with Dan Brown but, I seem to have a new favorite every week! lol What is your favorite Stephen King book? I've only ever read the Green Mile. Also, as a side bar...I just read about Stephen King's son and the fact that he too is a writer with a new novel out. Have any of you read his work yet?

mines Christopher Paoloini. I know he only wrote two books, but there the best books I've ever read.

There are a LOT of writers whose works I admire, but I have to say my favorite writer is Andrew Vachss, who writes hard crime/mystery novels, many of which deal with child abuse. He takes the title as my favorite because he puts his money where his mouth is--his entire legal practice involves representing children. His books help to fund his practice so I always make sure to buy his books first release in hardback. If any author deserves the money, he does.

Jonathon Stroud. He wrote my absolute favorite trilogy, Bartimieus Trilogy.

I would have to say that one of my most favorite authors is Sidney Sheldon.

The reason for this is that I just discovered that I have read all of his novels (except for maybe one I am not sure about) and I didn't ever get bored of his writing. I did not find that his books became predictable or that they became the same story with different characters.

I only recently learned that he passed away this past January and that there will be no more books for me to enjoy.

I'm definitely a Stephen King fan as well

Jon Krakauer or Bill Bryson. Dan Brown is also entertaining.

I would have to say Douglas Adams

I have all his books. I loved the Hitchhikers Guide so much that I have it as a Tatoo on my leg.

The little green guy on the cover and the words Don't Panic underneath him.
