My fave book is to kill a mockingbird, I love scouts transitition as she grows up and makes sense of the world. A great lesson in empathy.

Hard to decide but i think it has to be Clan of the Cave Bear by Jean Auel, it is a fabulous book and the first of the Earths Children series. The detail are amazing and it took 31 years to complete the whole series. This first book is followed by Valley of the Horses, The Mamouth Hunters, Plains of Passage, The Shelters of Stone and The Land of Painted Caves, all in all an amazing series that I have read countless times.

The Da Vinci Code is my favorite book ever, so good there are no words to describe this book. Action pact adventure it made me want to go to Paris and look at all the DA vinci paintings, The author packs so much info into this book its unbelievable and if you don't read it you miss the clue and your instantly confused, so when i was reading it i read carefully to understand it fully. I was also fascinated about the Jesus and him continuing the bloodline to descendants, its a topical thing and probaly we will never know the truth but sure was book i will never find again

Wild swans: Three Daughters of China. by Jung Chang.

This is a fantastic tale of three extraordinary women - A grandmother, mother and daughter. It takes you through three generations from the Boxer Rebellion, to the Peoples Revolution and the Cultural Revolutions. Wild Swans will bring you on a journey of love and hope. I could not put it down.

My all time favourite book is Flowers in the Attic by Virginia Andrews. I have read it 3 times over the last few years. I love how it is a part of a sequel of books.....all of which are so good.

My ultimate favourite is Wild Swans by Jung Chang. Published in 1991 this is an epic biographical tale spanning a century of three generations of women in China. It offered a real insight into how harsh the life was for women in Imperial and Communist China. Although sometimes a difficult read I found it really uplifting. It has sold 13 million copies worldwide which speaks volumes. Every woman should read this book!

Five minutes peace- when I used to read this to my children, they loved it , but I lived it.

The first adult book I read at age 12 was Agatha Christies - The Murder of Roger Ackroyd. It's still one of my favourites many, many years later.

Alice in wonderland, adventure, drama and cats, a must read

ben Elton time and time again

Excuse Me, Your Life is Waiting by Lynn Grabhorn is my favourite. Not a literary masterpiece but incredibly thought provoking. It links many thoughts and belief systems in a positive and practical manner which can be adopted by anyone in everyday life.

the lord of the rings, neve quiter sure if it is a trilogy or one novel in 3 parts, I read it when I was 10 & was my initiation into adult fantasy. I still love the way it stimulates the imagination

My favourite book is The Cuckoo's Calling by J.K Rowling (who wrote it under the pseudonym of Robert Gailbraith). I love detective books and this one is so well written! It is full of twists and turns and I was kept guessing right until the very end. A great read.

My favourite book of all time is ;-
A Town like Alice by Nevil Shute- i cry buckets everytime, true love story

My favourite book is I know Why the Caged Bird Sings by Maya Angelou. Actually it's part of a set of books detailing her life story. She had a very interesting life and I loved the whole set of books.

Jamaica Inn - Daphne Du Maurier. I lived not far from Jamaica Inn and back in the 60's it was eerie! I read this book every two years, more if I have time and it haunts me!! Why do I read it then? I love it!m

Life after Life by Kate Atkinson. I've read all her novels, but this is my favourite.

My favourite book is Wuthering heights by Emily Bronte. I first read it at school and surprisingly have loved it since. I like the portrayal of the characters from the mysterious Heathcliffe and his relationship to the Earnshaw family. The stunning Yorkshire scenery adds to the drama and the powerful storyline continues through the book.

My favourite book is Necroscope 3 by Brian Lumbley. Full of action, suspense & horror, Main character has supernatural powers one of which is being able to talk with the dead, they will even rise from the dead him. Did I also mention the vampires from another dimension. Take a look at this, you will not be disappointed.

Any of the first three of Helen Forresters autobiographical novels about her family life in Liverpool during the period in between the wars. I can and have reread them time and time again. They are both inspirational and thought provoking (Twopence to cross the Mersey , Liverpool Miss and By the waters of Liverpool)

Any of Noel Barber's books, not fashionable now, but well researched, and each story was so evocative of different areas of WW2, I can read them time and time again

I loved the time travelers wife, a real love story across the ages. I was so immersed and it had just that little bit of magic, Brought a tear to my eye, couldn't put it down!

Loved reading Rose Harbour in bloom by Debbie Macomber. It was the 1st of her books i read and i just couldnt put it down. Wasnt disapointed when the 2nd in that series came out as it was just as good. This is a brilliant prize. Have had a break from reading because i had 3 young children, and had no time. Only started reading again this time last year and have managed to read about 30 books this year. cant get my nose out the books, carry them everywhere in case i get a spare 5 mins lol

I normally go for cheesy chick lit books but my absolute favorite book is Pride and Prejudice. I love how all of the characters and personalities work together and I can really relate to Lizzy- just need my Mr Darcy now

I love The Collector by John Fowles - it is a fantastic book with a particularly good ending. I studied this for A Level and have re-read several times since.
