In the 1998 cheesey-but-great Drew Barrymore movie Ever After, the Prince tells her to pick any book in the library. She replies, "I could no sooner choose a favorite star in the heavens." While I empathize with her dilemma, I can at least narrow it down. Here are some of my favorite books, and you can expect the list to grow.

-The Great Gatsby by F. Scott Fitzgerald
-East of Eden by John Steinbeck
-Oliver Twist by Charles Dickens
-Pride and Prejudice by Jane Austen
Modern
-The Harry Potter Series by J.K. Rowling
-The Five People You Meet in Heaven by Mitch Albom
-The Kite Runner and A Thousand Splendid Suns by Khaled Hosseini
-The Outlander Series by Diana Gabaldon
-The Twilight Series by Stephenie Meyer (mildly embarrassed)
-The Time Traveler's Wife by Audrey Niffenegger
Authors (any and all works)
-Jodi Picoult
