Do you have an all time favourite book

[askyourgran]

one that you go back to after a while and re-read it.

I have read The Riddle of the Sands, by Erskine Childers several times, the book was published in 1903 and I find it interesting for its historical fact that was eventally leading to the first world war and quite atmospheric. As well as the classics The Anaeid, the Odyssey and the The illiad, which I like to read now and again. I also liked to read the Stephen Donaldson fantasy books The Chronicles of Thomas Covanent trilogies.

hello gran, the jennings books were aimed at young schoolboys, as jennings was a young schoolboy

Most of us read Jennings, though, it didn't matter at that age if they were aimed at girls or boys, they were good fun - a bit like Billy Bunter.

The Hitch Hiker's Guide to the Galaxy by Douglas Adams - a true, superbly written classic!
