What is the best book you've ever read?

For me its a toss up between Harrt Potter 4 and Series of Unfortunate Events 11.

I love books and I love reading and I don't really have a fave... but I do like series/trilogies. The serie's I've read and loved so far are:

Harry Potter - J K Rolling
The Farseer Trilogy - Robin Hobb
The Live Ship Trilogy - Robin Hobb
The Tawny Man Trilogy - Robin Hobb
The Deverry Series - Katherine Kerr
The Wheel Of Time - Robert Jordan
The Vampire Chronicals - Anne Rice
The Lord of the Rings - JRR Tolkien

Plus I love reading Stephen King and Dean Koontz and just about anything else that strikes my fancy :D

As you can tell, I love reading and I usually read a lot (that is when I find time in between gaming B) )

Right now? I feel it is The Count of Monte Cristo by Alexandre Dumas.

If you've watched the movie. It's nothing like the book. It's like comparing Golden Eye: Rogue Agent to GoldenEye 64. Accept no substitutes.

Some of my favourite books are probably:
The Hitchhiker's Guide To The Galaxy series - Douglas Adams
Deathscent - Robin Jarvis (it was supposed to get a sequel, but i haven't seen one :()
The Old Kingdom trilogy - Garth Nix
The Winner - David Baldacci
Split Second - David Baldacci
Alongside probably a whole host of others that i've forgotten :P.

I know exactly what you mean. If you saw the Series of Unfortunate Events movie and didn't like it, don't be deterred from the books. This series is the best I've ever read and the movie incorrectly depicts the tale.
