Tonia and I were chatting about how there are certain books you read over and over, which brought up the question:
What's your favorite book ever?
Mine's a children's book, but every year I read A Wrinkle in Time. Love it.
OMIGOSH Lorsin!!!!!!!! You are soooooo my long lost sister!!!! LOL! I LOVE LOVE LOVE THAT BOOK! I reread it all the time!!!
Other books that I have to reread constantly is Summer Sisters by Judy Blume and Here on Earth by Alice Hoffman. And in the children's book category I love to read Bridge to Terabithia.

Re: Favorite Book Ever?
i don't think i've read anything twice. (except things for school, like 'the odyssey')
i started reading 'catcher in the rye' again, and i really was not liking it. Maybe i wasn't in the reading mood. that happens.
but I REALLY LOVE all of Fannie Flaggs books. I would read those again!!! (fried green tomatoes, welcome to the world baby girl, daisy fay and the miracle man, standing in the rainbow). I didn't want ANY of them to end.
Neil Gaiman- Neverwhere Neil gaiman & terry pratchett- Good Omens Stephen king- green mile and hearts in atlantis (movie is only part of that book... don't go by that) Steinbeck- Of mice and men (one of the few books i LOVED reading for school!)

A Tree Grows in Brooklyn by Betty Smith is my favorite book.
I also love The Catcher in the Rye
As far as children's books go I'm a Harry Potter addict and I also LOVE 'From the Mixed up files of Mrs. Basil E Frankweiler'
