What is your most favourite book(s)?

Moving away from literature for a moment, I recommend Predictably Irrational, by Dan Ariely, to anyone. It's very accessible, and is a fascinating psychological survey of the irrational behavior that we so often exhibit, much of which I had never considered, and of the underlying reasons for it.

I'm not a big reader or anything. The Catcher in the Rye by J.D. Salinger is probably my favorite one. Gotta love that Holden.

I've just started reading The Great Gatsby for my English A-level. I'm only about half-way through, but so far so good. Some of the language is beautiful and anyone who disagrees should be shot.

“Yet high over the city our line of yellow windows must have contributed their share of human secrecy to the casual watcher in the darkening streets, and I saw him too, looking up and wondering. I was within and without, simultaneously enchanted and repelled by the inexhaustibly variety of life.”

Wow
