1. Harry Potter By J.K Rowling
2. The Tortal Series By Tamora Pierce
3. The Mediator Series By Meg Cabot
4. The Insiders Series By J. Minter

Only five!?!? I think I'd have trouble enough with only 20, but five? That's like murder! I think I cheated by choosing a bunch of series.... but they are seriously all awesome. Especially Harry Potter which I know you refuse to read, because you're insane ;)
(I'm not going to list my runner-ups because I'd probably end up listing 30 lol.)

I'm not insane... just very very stubborn :P
I've read the Mediator series! (well, up to the.. Haunting, is it? something like that; not the newest one though). Good times...
Yes, five is pretty crazy, but you have to draw the line somewhere *laughs*

Hmm.....*looks around* my kind of people, lol. Kay my top five
1. Twilight and New Moon by Stephanie Meyer. Its a sequal thing but there isn't a specific name for the whole series so yea...lol
2. Anything by Meg Cabot, her books are the funniest things I have ever read (whoever said the mediator books, rock on! If you like those, read the 1-800-where-r-u those are just as good).
3. Eragon and The Eldest by Christopher Pal-can't spell his last name.
4. Of course the Harry Potter books, but they have their own category all together lol.
5. Pride and Predjudice, (wasn't the movie amazing? I never thought of Kiera Knightley being Elizabeth but she was really good. And okay did anyone else see the resemblence between Mr. Wickham and Orlando Bloom? Or am I just insane?)
So yea those pretty much my fav's but its hard to have a totally favorite book when you read so many. They each have their own levels of awsomenity.

Well here's Mine...
1. Lord of the Rings trilogy -Tolkien
2. White Oleander - Janet Fitch
3. Bridget Jones - Helen Fielding
4. Stephen King - Rosie
5. Phantom - Susan Kay.
That's a bit of everything I guess, still it's hard to chose. These are the books I never get tired of reading though.

2. The Lost Years of Merlin series ~ T.A. Barron
3. The Chronicles of Narnia ~ C.S. Lewis
4. Lord of the Rings ~ J.R.R. Tolkien

And lots of other ones (CS Lewis' books in general, and Austen's good too! And Stephen Lawhead's other books as well). ^_^
