1. Scar Tissue by Anthony Kiedis
As I said in my other blog post, this is my favorite book of all time because it totally opened my eyes to a new world of drugs, music, and chaos. Even though it is really long, Scar Tissue is a really fast read.
2. Harry Potter (all of them)
They are my favorites and I never get sick of reading them.
3. 90 Minutes in Heaven by Don Piper
I felt like I had to read this because my grandma gave it to me on Easter last year. However, I started reading it and could not stop because it was such an amazing story.
4. Catcher In The Rye by J.D. Salinger
I don't think I really understood it because I was kind of young when I read it, but I remember loving it anyways.
5. Running With Scissors by. Augusten Burroughs
The funniest book I have ever read.
6.How I Paid for College by Marc Acito
The 2nd funniest book I have ever read.
7. Into the Wild by Jon Krakauer
Maude gave it to me for Christmas because she thought I would like it, and she was way right. The movie was just as good as the book.
8. Peter Pan by J.M. Barrie
This book is magic. I love reading it around Christmas because it is such a magical book and Christmas is the most magical time of year.
9. Prep by Curtis Sittenfeld
I read this when I was young and everything in the book seemed really new to me, so this book taught me a lot.
10. My Sister's Keeper by Jodi Picoult
I have never cried so much from reading a book.
11. Twilight
I cried really hard in this book too. And I was obsessed with it for a while, just like every other girl in America.
12. Bridget Jones' Diary by Helen Fielding
The 3rd funniest book I have ever read. The movie is really good as well.
13. Deception Point by Dan Brown
I love Dan Brown books, and I think this one is my favorite.

Sophie, clearly you want to be moved by a book, and it doesn't matter whether it's laughing or crying, as long as it's something strong. I like the fact that you go back to some of your favorites regularly, and that you compare books to the movie versions. (I haven't read Into the Wild, but I agree that the movie was very well done.) And isn't it interesting that sometimes books we read because we think we "ought" to (say, when our grandmother gives it to us), become our favorites. I like that story. Thanks.
