My "Quiz Your Friends" thing gave me an idea: What's everyone's favorite book, and why? As posted in the comments, mine is probably Jane Eyre, though it's very difficult to choose. It's easier for me to pick authors; my favs are Neil Gaiman, Francesca Lia Block, Douglas Adams, J. R. R. Tolkien, C. S. Lewis, Katherine Paterson, Mark Twain, Donna Jo Napoli, The Bronte sisters, William Blake (poetry), Shakespeare, Frances Hodgson Burnett. Miscellaneous favorite books include "The Hours", "Shattered Mirror", The Sally Lockhart Trilogy (Ruby in the Smoke, etc), Tuck Everlasting, and The Red Tent.

Wow. That's a long list. I'm so indecisive.
