    My all time favourite books - so far! (loveliterature)

    Zora Neale Hurston - 'Their Eyes Were Watching God'

    Alex Garland - 'The Beach'

    Fannie Flagg - 'Fried Green Tomatoes at the Whistle Stop Cafe'

    Mario Puzo - 'The Godfather'

    As you can probably tell, I like my 20th century classics. The films adaptations of these books are also brilliant!

     Also added - the Red Dwarf books: Infinity Welcomes Careful Drivers, Last Human, Backwards and Better Than Life. For anyone who is a fan of the series (and who isnt?) these books are a treasure trove, they are wholly written by the main writers of the show (Grant & Naylor) and are guaranteed laugh out loud. I DARE anyone to read one of these books on the bus! Funny looks aplenty!

    I loved the film of Fried Green Tomatoes but I've never read it I'm afraid.

    Fried Green Tomatoes is an absolutely brilliant book and a very good film too.
