- The 'Myst' series.
- Anything by Steve Jackson.
- The 'Lord Of The Rings' series.

I'm not that huge of a Stupid Sexy Flanders fan myself. Sure the books are excellent and I've read them all, I just don't find myself rereading them as much as I do the others I've mentioned.

I don't usually re-read a book, ever, but I do tend to read a lot of fan fiction. While there are many HP fics that are just... ugh, there are enough good fics to keep me satisfied.

I've re-read Jurrasic Park several times.  So I guess that's my favourite story.  (About math, not dinosaurs and Dr. Ian Malcolm was haaaaaawwwwwwt.)

One from when I was younger:  Charlie and the Chocolate Factory.

My Aunt Meri bought me that and Gulliver's Travels for the same birthday.  I read Charlie so many times but could never make it through Gulliver.

Probably 1984 or A Farewell to Arms. I like stories with crushing defeats at the end of them. They provide for the most original endings.

I really liked the storyline in "The Brothers Grimm" (the movie).

Also:

- the Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy
- the Lord of the Rings series
- the Stupid Sexy Flanders series
- Misery

Here's mine while I was playing poker the other day. 

That's right...the veins in my person's forehead form the Atari symbol.
