The Help....Best book I have read in a long time. Lent it to my mother, she lent it to someone, never got it back. Bought another, ended up with my sister. Bought another, lent it, they absolutely promised to give back...have not seen for a year! Now its going on my Kindle! It is a great book...anxious (and a little nervous, hope they didn't ruin it) to see the movie. Another really good one is another Wally Lamb, I know This Much is True. Snowflower and the Secret Fan or anything else by Lisa See. Also, the first of Ken Follet's new trilogy, name escapes me right now!

My favorite book of all time is All Quiet on the Western Front. 
And I loved The Perks of Being a Wallflower.
I like to be challenged intellectually so any book by Dr. Seuss works for me.
But seriously "Great Expectations" has probably had the most impact and stayed with me longer than any book I've ever read.
