Well, I go along Vodi's list plus add my all time favourite - childhood memories - Eric Kästner
k:
@Lizar - Tolkien dod not write just Lotr - try reading Hobbit or Simalirion!
Since I study Englisch and German as a major -there are tones of books I could write down...
And saidly
- I think something like this has been a discussion before - I am not a big fan of SF.
