Favorite novels: How much time have you got? Here is a list of the books I have most re-read over the years, supposing this to be an accurate gauge, and I do keep adding to this list as I think of them: All Creatures Great and Small books, No Flying in the House, The Pillars of the Earth, A Dangerous Fortune, The Lord of the Rings, The Hobbit, Gone With the Wind, A Wrinkle in Time, Into Thin Air, Bambi, The Jungle Book, Island of the Blue Dolphins, Never Cry Wolf, Misery, The Shining, The Stand, The Cider House Rules, The World According to Garp, basically all of Heinlein's books other than the ones emerging from the last ten years of his life, the Oz books, the Narnia books, the Harry Potter books, A Connecticut Yankee in King Arthur's Court, Welcome to the World Baby Girl, Fried Green Tomatoes at the Whistle Stop Cafe, The Horse Goddess, Shield of Three Lions, Here I Stand, Cat's Cradle, The Last of the Really Great Whangdoodles, Watership Down, Maia, Shardik, The Crystal Cave, The Hollow Hills, The Last Enchantment, Interview With a Vampire (although I didn't really care for her subsequent novels). I could go on, I suppose.
