Wow this thread is reminding me of some really great books that I have read and some that I still need to read. Good way to spend a nice spring day cigar, drink, and a book.

War and Peace, Tolstoy?

Some good guesses so far. A couple hints though: 1) You may be a bit "modern" so far. 2) Two prizes....hmm. Feel free to re-guess if you are already on here.

Alright, second guess: JD Salinger, Catcher in the Rye.

Edit: wait, I think I get it now. The above is my choice for favorite book. My choice for favorite author is John Grisham.

Ya?

Interesting...looks like somebody is on to something!

if second guesses are allowed I'd say Tom Clancy ~ Hunt for Red Oktober

Hmmm, favorite book Dumas' Three Musketeers (would have guessed Count of Monte Cristo but someone beat me to it). Favorite author Frank Herbert

OK... here it is 200 posts and I have 2 winners. Kaspera79 for book on 1984 (right now my favorite is catch 22, but this has always been right up there, animal farm = also an all time great). Bigharpoon for author with Faulkner (I like Bradbury, but so many great titles, light in august, sanctuary, as I lay dying). Thanks to everybody who played, send me those addresses fellas and I'll get you something real nice.

SWEET!!! I've been away from home for a few days and was able to check this morning before work, what a great surprise. Faulkner is one of my favorite authors as well.

Thanks for hosting the competition ljl, I really enjoyed it. PM getting sent.
