Bartimaeus Trilogy/Sequence always comes to mind.

I don't know why.

I've also been a reader of Guardians of Ga'hoole for a while, but I'm missing a book.

Not sure about favourite characters.

The Traveller series, American Gods, Anansi Boys...come to mind as well.

Neverwhere..

some of these are probably nostalgia since these are all books i read when i was younger/much younger
my mother loved giving me books to read

also YEA i like books

I actually don't read a lot of books (I do like reading though), but I should read more. Especially larger book varieties.
From what I've read, I really like R.L. Stine's Fear Street books (inb4 "eww rl stine" just because he makes the 'goosebumps' series for children doesn't mean he sucks, FS is for teens and the ones I've read are pretty great) and lately I've been interested in reading anything by Stephen King.

I LOVELOVELOVE TO READ

I read whenever possible. I read very well; on an eight grade level. I read books above my level with ease. I have many favorite books and characters, so many that it'd take me FOREVER to list them all. I'll read almost any type of book, whether it be fiction or nonfiction.

I LOVE books! And I read ALL the time, except when I'm on here. smilie

My favorite book would probably have to be, um, I CAN'T DECIDE! smilie

Eh, I'll just list some of my favorites: The Ranger's Apprentice, The Secrets of the Immortal Nicholas Flamel, Maximum Ride, Witch and Wizard, The Hunger Games, Percy Jackson, Heroes of Olympus, Micahel Vey, The 39 Clues, and The Inheritance Cycle Yeah, I have a problem.

My favorite character from all of these has to be either Percy from the Percy Jackson/Heroes of Olympus, Eragon from the Inheritance Cycle, or Josh from The Secrets of The Immortal Nicholas Flamel.

EDIT: I forgot about The Kane Chronicles and The Jake Ransom series.

I enjoy reading, though I don't get much time these days to read them..

Favourite books would include; The first 6 Warriors books, E.E knight's Dragon Champion, Daughter of Smoke and Bone, and Days of Blood and Starlight - Laini Taylor, the Hush, Hush series by Becca Fitzpatrick, Divergent - Veronica Roth and of course the hunger games by Suzanne Collins.

Favourite characters..Uh..Jayfeather and Firepaw/heart (I only liked him in the first series) from Warriors, Akiva from DoSaB/DoBaS and Patch from Hush, hush.

Eh, books are alright I guess. I don't get very engrossed in many books, most don't catch my attention. If I don't really like I book, I tend to read a sentence and then discard it forgetting that I read it.

How often? Well, for English we have to read a lot now, but its free read so any book you want. I don't tend to read in my free time unless it's in a study hall or something, or if it's like, a really good book I want to read 24/7. I read more fanfictions than anything. Mostly Hunger Games ones.

Favorite Book? That's actually pretty tough. Obviously I really like The Hunger Games Trilogy, but I also liked the Enchanted Forest chronicles before I ever read the series. My favorite book used to be Dealing With Dragons from the Enchanted Forest Chronicles. Now, not very sure. I just finished reading the first 2 books of the Search For WondLa series and I REALLY love them. I'm eagerly waiting the third books release. Of the 3 books in The Hunger Games Trilogy, I'd say Catching Fire was my favorite. Although the other two have their own perks about them, Catching Fire beats them both. So all in all, I'd have to say Catching Fire is my current favorite book.

Favorite Character? That's where it's kinda fuzzy. See, I read a lot of fanfictions uh...before I read any of The Hunger Games books...so...it affected my view on some characters. I despise Finnick Odair, but lately I've been feeling better about him with some fanfictions that put him in better light. Then I think Glimmer is a whore, and I favor the careers in the 74th Games above any other tributes. Katniss hasn't exactly been my cup of tea, she doesn't make it easy to like her. So I'd say in The Hunger Games, Boggs is my favorite. He wasn't there very long, but he was funny and I loved him. Though, I kinda hate the way they made him look...it's not how I pictured. But I also liked Peeta a lot so....and obviously Cato.
For The Search For WondLa and A Hero For WondLa, Eva Nine is my favorite. The challenges she goes through are extraordinary and her adventure makes me want to never put the book down and cry when I finish the books (MUTHR WHYYYYY ;____;). I would actually recommend these books above The Hunger Games. Though, I would still choose The Hunger Games for best book, but still, a very good series and Eva Nine is a fantastic character.
All in all, Eva Nine wins.

I don't read that often.... Though I do kinda like it.

Heir Apparent is probably one of my favorite books. Though not many seem to have ever heard of it.

As for characters, Giannine/Janine is pretty cool, but just the looks that Queen Andreanna gives throughout the book. smilie

Books can be okay. I prefer comic books and manga though. I don't get to read them often.

I'm afraid of text books and library books because I would have to pay for them if damaged. Which is why I don't like going to the library or check out library books.

I like reading but I hardly ever do it. Last year I got back into it tho, with the Divergent series. I've been trying to actually find a new series to read but my local library either doesn't have them at all or they're always out. :/

My favourite books are definately the Divergent series, the first two warriors series' and the Last Dragon Chronicles books. I also liked the Ga'hoole books and the Wind Singer books whatever that series was called. I read them a while ago tho so I can't exactly remember them much.

Favourite characters, well most of the books I listed I read when I was like 13, so if I had favourite characters I don't remember who they were, so pretty much it's just Four from the Divergent series. He's so ****ing sassy it's great.

Books are really among the most amazing things created by man. Very mind-blowing how a simple collection of paper and ink can teach people new things, expand one's mind, and create entire new worlds and adventures that we would never ordinarily dream of.

My two favorites are Enders Game and The Night Circus.

Favorite characters: With Enders game, it's hard to decide. Most people would say Bean, but I found him annoying. I liked Ender a lot, and I also liked Harrison.
For the Night Circus, it's almost impossible. You dive into each characters backstory, and learn every little detail about them. If I had to say, I liked Hector, Alexander, Celia, Marco (sorta) and Herr Thiessen.
