Books you can’t forget

[Parnate]

For me it is the " God of small things". The writer is controversial but book is the best one I have read. What is your favourite book.?

This is so hard.

The Quiet Room by Lori Schiller is a memorable first person account with second hand witness accounts on schizophrenia.

The Chronicles of Malus Darkblade because I love Warhammer Fantasy and these were my introductory books to the lore.

Both Child Thief and Slewfoot by Brom.

Power of Now by Eckhart Tolle, for me its like a guide, a treasure, the more I perceive now (present moment) the more I am with my true self and experiecning a life, every moment of now is amplified.. If I was healthy I would try to live by this guide because I believe I would not have regrets of now living a life

that's my best friend's favourite book of all time! i also loved it and thought it was practically perfect. really love how evocatively Roy writes about rape... chilling.
my top 5 books of all time (when limited to one per author) are probably:

• Cosmicomics by Italo Calvino
• Infinite Jest by David Foster Wallace
• Leaves of Grass by Walt Whitman
• The Picture of Dorian Gray by Oscar Wilde
• The Dharma Bums by Jack Kerouac

Novels:
Dracula, because it's a fantastic classic.
Annihilation and House of Leaves, because of the surreality.

Short Stories:
Mephisto in Onyx by Harlan Ellison, because it's thrilling and stressful.
Masquerade of a Dead Sword by Thomas Ligotti, because it's incredibly unique.

Great taste. I love L'Étranger by Albert Camus. I remember we had to read it at school and I loved it.
