In a poll I posted to help us all get to know each other I asked the question:
If you could only ever read one book forever, what book would you choose?
Now many of you did say you’d rather not live, and though I’m sure many others felt torn between that option and having to chose, they did choose. I have compiled the following montage.
There can only be one, one book to rule them all!
Part TWO of Three:
by Charles Dickens
Yes I did start with this one do to the Irony
Good choice though, good choice 🙂
by Elizabeth Gasket
Another great classics choice!
Lilith’s Brood
by Octavia E. Butler
I know series seem a little bit like a cheat, but I will allow them of course, plus this one is in one volume so it’s definitely not a cheat.
Randomly surprise me!
Okay here goes…
Crusoe the Celebrity Dachshund:
Adventures of the Wiener Dog Extraordinaire
by Ryan Beauchesne
I clicked highly rated, then sorted by best reviewed and this was the top book, hopefully that’s random enough hehe. Hey, I’m actually a little intrigued.
Plato: Complete Works
by Plato
Well this would definitely occupy the mind!
by J.D. Salinger
To Kill a Mockingbird
by Harper Lee
I’d cheat & write new ones!
A noble choice 🙂
by Margaret Mitchell
A sweeping epic saga, such a perfect choice!
by Louise Hay
Staying motivated, I like it.
by J.K. Rowling
Sorta cheating I know… but it’s Potter so we can’t really argue with that choice 🙂
Adventurers Wanted, Book One: Slathbog’s Gold
by M.L. Forman
Never heard of it, but I like the title! Looks good.
by Orwell
An eye opening choice 😉
Trollope Political novels omnibus or
Love in the Time of Cholera
by Gabriel GarcÍA MÁRquez
I love this book! A great summer time read too.
by Frederick Buechner
Another one I haven’t heard of, I love all these new discoveries 🙂
Infinite Jest
by David Foster Wallace
I bet a few of you guessed this one would show up aye 😉
Shantaram: A Novel
by Gregory David Roberts
This book looks enchanting I’ve added it to my tbr list
by Jennifer L. Armentrout
Anything by Taylor Caldwell
So I just looked it up and chose the highest rated one, and here we have it:
Dear and Glorious Physician
by Taylor Caldwell
The Modern Bible
There are so many stories wrapped around a single story
The Bible was chosen over 10 times but this one specified modern sand told us why, so I included it again. And I chose the New International Version.
Wicked:
The Life and Times of the Wicked Witch of the West
by Gregory Maguire
Fun choice! I’ve never read it but I’d like to.
by Carol Goodman
Haven’t read it, but what and intriguing title 🙂
by John Bunyan
This book has been on my tbr list for SO long, I really need to get around to it! Another great choice.
So many more amazing reads chosen, and so many interesting one as well, I love discovery what books inspire people!
What do YOU think of these choices?

Love in the times of cholera or 100 years of solitude definitely. I don’t know why I never quite “hit” with Dickens? Maybe I should give it another try.
