With me, I don't know, I have too many. Probably one of my favourites ever is The Catcher In The Rhye by old dude Sallinger. It's funny, quirky, yet really sad in a way. I could really uderstand the main character, Holden Caulfield, and why he felt that way. It's a great book for anyone, old and young, and really helps you to live and mature in a phony society.

Maybe I'll read that. I have a lot of books I love, two of which are "City of Masks" and "City of Stars" (the sequel) by Mary Hoffman. Both are about teenagers who don't have an easy life in this world but find their way into another. They're exciting and very moving, and you can really identify with the characters, no matter which world they come from. The third part of the trilogy, "City of Flowers" is being released in hardback next February. Has anybody read them?

I like a lot of books, but one of my favourites that i think isnt too well none is Allan Gurganus' Plays Well With Others. It's all about art and love and friends and AIDS and NYC, very beautifully written.
