If there was one book or series in the entire world you could keep; what book/series would it be ?
Let’s say, if all the books in the world would be burnt.. [but, they never will be…*touch wood*]

Personally, i can't really choose D= ph34r.gif
marasshi
One Hundred Years of Solitude by Gabriel Garcia Marquez

But why would you even think of burning your books?
[MeiMei ♡]
no no;; like if all the books were to be burnt but you could save one series or book =]
saucydumplings
I would try to grab as many Harry Potter books as I can!

Didn't I just answer your question?

I said I'd save One Hundred Years of Solitude by Gabriel Garcia Marquez.
정유미
for me it would be the time traveler's wife by audrey niffenegger. smile.gif or probably the twilight series--except breaking dawn, though. i can do away with that book. XD
Mirae-chan
Harry Potter. xD Preferably Prisoner of Akaban for me since it's my favourite. But maybe Goblet or Half-Blood, since they're longer xD
DarkAngelInLove
Why are you asking such a hard question!? hehehe

I would have to choose.... my The Immortal Series, it's one of many that I have read so many times.
But I'm not sure about that answer because I love all of my books!
Puttaeyeon

after thinking and thinking and thinking, I settled on Animal Farm by George Orwell
Profane Creation
Forget books, I'd just compile all my own stories into one file and print that out.

ohhlalakelly
Really hard, but most likely the Twilight Saga. <3
monaero
I'm stuck between the HP series, the LOTR trilogy, the Shadow Children series, the Noble Warriors Trilogy, and the Wind on Fire Trilogy. My life would be meaningless without these books.
zidneyannex3
I would choose the Twilight saga or Harry Potter series :]]
erinfinite
Really tempted to say Jane Eyre, hahah.

Actually, I might save Winnie the Pooh smile.gif

Look at all these HP fans, lol.

CorrectionYourWrongImRight
Pride and prejudice.. makes me so happy!!
jinggg.
harry potter or twilight laugh.gif
Billie Poynter
This is easy, Battle Royale.
standing ovation
The Little Prince, hands down.

Or the Ender and Shadow series (since it's like 12 books altogether in the Enderverse).

But it'd really kill me if I was limited to only these :/
fionahh
I can't pick between Pride & prejudice or the Time Traveler's Wife. sad.gif
lovemelody.
harry potter ftw.
i cant live without this series<3
Bourjois
HARRY POTTER.


The Da Vinci Code is a runner-up.
Autumne
Harry Potter for sure. I've read them at least 4 times and I don't see myself getting tired of them anytime soon. tongue.gif
jaefan
Twilight series.

and i will try my best to save my HP books as well.lmao.
upendi

natsu2
Twilight saga

and...the Holy Quraan ^^ (Muslim) =)
l3lo
OMG why?! it hurts for me to even choose!... tears.gif tahaha my book i'll have to either choose would be "Bridge to Terabithia" or "Tuck Everlasting". these two were kind of my first books that touched my heartstrings biggrin.gif before any other books i read after. and omg just like natsu2 i was thinking the Bible. i'm a Lutheran and that is one book i'll definitely not burn.

BRIDGE TO TERABITHIA !!! AWESOMEENESS biggrin.gif or HP biggrin.gif
I expected most to say Twilight or HP blink.gif
blue.berrii
hmm.. that's hard.
maybe The Giving Tree? I love that book.
or or maybe HP since it's longer.~
i dunno..
too hard =PP
lntervention
The Bible (well someone has to save it).

If that's already saved then Pride and Prejudice by Jane Austen.
EMPIRE
i would say Pride or Prejudice as well.
you really do get all giddy reading that book.
..2nd would be Norwegian Wood. that one really hit home for me. great characters.

Bartimaeus Trilogy!

So goood~~~

I wanna marry Bartimaeus! <3

I've read the series thrice and I'm still not bored of it at ALL! I notice little details every time I do.

But I hurts me just thinking about all the master literary works in the world getting destroyed forever...
sheart
It's probably not the 'best' or 'smartest' reading material... but DEFINITELY ORSON SCOTT CARD'S ENDERS GAME SERIES.
