Which is the best book you ever read

Historically, skills that we posses now offered to us as basic/fundamental right were once reserved for the aristocracy and the elite. Even women in the aristocracy were not allowed to posses these skills.
These highly valuable ancient skills were reading and writing. This right now may seem very primitive and highly intuitive to most but in the ancient world possesing these skills was next to impossible.
But now that you have these skills what have you done with them. Whivh is the most exciting book that you have read. My peraonal favorite was the blue nowhere by Jeffrey Deaver.
which one is yours and why?

My personal favorite is the Lord of the Rings.I remembered reading it before it became popular as a movie serious. What I loved about the book was the imagination of Tolkien.He was able to come out with lore , history, and many remarkable characters. Despite it being hard for me to to understand the book initially as I was still a child,I really loved the theme and it is definitely the best book I have read so far.

There are so many good books that I have read over my lifetime that it is about impossible to just choose any one particular book and say that it is the best ont that I have ever read. Plus, I read so many different categories of books, and while I might have some that are favorites as a novel, there are other books that I read to learn something, and so I like that book for a totally different reason. As far as just novels go, one of the ones that I really enjoyed is called "Leaving Time" by Jodi Picault. It is the poignant story of a little girl who lost her mother when she was just a toddler, and has been trying to find her ever since. She teams up with a disgruntled detective and a psychic that has lost her ability to tell the future, and together they go on a search for the lost mother. The book is told from several perspectives, sometimes from the girl's , and other times from the detective, the psychic, and also from the perspective of the mother, which is mostly background information.
The ending comes as a total shock, and then I had to go back and read the book over again and look for the clues that I had missed when reading it the first time through. This is a book that I would definitely recommend reading !

I've been a huge fan of classic literature since I was in high school, and I'm always eager to promote Kurt Vonnegut's work whenever I get the chance. I don't think the man wrote a bad book. However, we're talking about a singular book, not an author and their work.

If I had to boil my favorite book down to one publication, my answer will always be The Count of Monte Cristo by Alexandre Dumas. It's an over-the-top, convoluted story of revenge, and I found it an absolute joy to read. It centers around a young man who has everything going for him: a beautiful bride, a good job with potential for a promotion, and loving father. Several people close to him dislike this, and conspire to have him thrown in jail so one can get his wife, one can get his job, and the other a third thing I can't remember.

Anyway, it ends up working, and the young man, Edmond Dantes, comes back to seek revenge on those who wronged him. Dumas does a fantastic job in setting up the sequence of events, and then unraveling a ridiculously complex plan of revenge that's extracted on those who wronged the main character. It's a tough read, but I found it to be incredibly entertaining.

One of the best books that I've ever read is the Fifty Shades of Grey. I did first watch the movie before reading through the whole series of the book. I rarely read books, but when I found out that the movie fifty shades of grey is based on a book I immediately browse the net and looks for the book version.

T he Monk Who Sold His Ferrari by Robin Sharma is by far among the best books I have ever read. It gives a story of a very wealthy lawyer who had been obsessed with his work and success that he forgot about his family and health until he had a heart attack and decided to seek his inner self and peace. He gave up everything he had and when to search for monks who would not age. It's quite a good book to have.

I have read lots of great and motivational books which have helped in making me understand life better and how things work in our world. I cannot play my hand on the best book that I have read since all of them gave me great insights on life and our relationship with one another.

When I read the two popular books by Robert Greene, 48 laws of powers and Art of seduction, I learnt so much from them. 48 laws of powers taught using examples of even life events the laws that if we practice and master, we can become great personalities in life and what I like most about the book is that all the laws are applicable in real life. His art of seduction was another book that talked about romance and love and one, whether man or woman, can successfully seduce the opposite sex in a way that people will wonder if there is a kind of charm you're using on the person.

reading these two books by Robert Greene happened to be one of the best decisions I took in life for it shaped my social, and personal life in a way that I never imagined it could have happened.

And the way she gave names to different magic spells, animals etc are really amazing. I really adore her for her writings.

While dan brown's book is also great cause it makes me think so much. I love the mystery on every book he writes.

I think for me it has to be Mist by the Stepher King. I have read most of the stephen king's content. And I find it interesting with every new book he has so far. In past he had this thriller style of writing. But later it changed and had more tangents. I think it'd be reasonable to see how the book turned out in such case when he releases new content. I for now only focus on the thriller and the horror content most of the time.

All books that I've read so far, are the best for me. I always read motivational books. Every books give different moral lesson to build you a better person. Books is unique, it gives you different ideas that can help you in the way of life. Books gives inspiration and admiration to the readers, because it is based on a true story of an author or it's a view of what an author think about life.

I don't like to read history books. I prefer to read romance books. My favorite book is called the fault in our stars. What a beautiful book is about a girl who has cancer and someday she meets a boy who also had cancer but he lost a leg and then he was free of having cancer. They fall in love and even travel together to Amsterdam. One day, doctors said to him that the cancer was back.
He died 8 days later. I cried so much but, it is a beautiful book.

The best book that I read to which no other book can match as to information is the Sun Tzu's art of war. Though it teach classical warfare but the philosophical attributes to life is very meaningful. I often apply basic philosophies of this book in my work as well as during strategic planning, its expressions is very good, quotations are inspiring too.

I love most of Bob Ong's book but one on my favorite is "ABNKKBSNPLAko?!" (Wow! I can actually read now). I read this during my college days. I like the concept of the story, it is mostly his experience, his childhood memories and his journey when he was still studying up to the moment of finding his first job, few years at work. I enjoyed reading it because as student that time, I can relate so much to the story and the first few chapters of his childhood gave me nostalgia. His books are all worth the read, you can get so much lesson, quotation that is applicable to life.

I have read many books and I think that I didn't read the best book of all. My feelings towards the books I read are all the same. And now I am searching for that book that will put an excitement when I am reading it. I hope soon I find it and read it.

The best that I've ever read will probably be the Twilight, this book gives me all the feels like the feeling of sadness, happiness and romance. This book is actually good not that just because of the story and because of how it circles around love, even if you're not a both perfect for each other,love will still find ways to get you together.

The best book I ever read is the Bible. It is in the bible that I read about the saviour who came to the world and suffered vicariously for the sins of men. It's in the Bible I got my hope that I will not perish for life. It's the Bible that reveals to me that God loves me more than anyone else or more than the way I love myself. The Bible is the only book that lasts forever. Other books are temporary and temporal. They are mere books that will soon vanish away from the surface of the earth.

The best book I ever read in life is the bible. I am a mathematician who studied at a reputable university in my country. I read so many books at the department libraries and at many other places. Upon all, I still discovered that there's no book like the Bible, the holy book of God. Someone started doing research about life after life, but couldn't find until he died. It's in this book called the Bible that I found life after life.

The best books that I have read are no doubt the 'Lord of the Rings' series by J.R.R Tolkien. I love reading science fiction and fantasy books. I have a large collection of those genres of books at home. I am continuously looking for new books to read. When it comes to the 'Lord of the Rings' books I can read them over and over again. I am so impressed with the story and the characters. J.R.R Tolkien is no doubt among the best author. He had such a creative imagination.
