Born to Run by Christopher McDougall. It's inspired me to run my first marathon and then 50k. In 2019 I'll be attempting a 50 miler and then my first 100 miler :)

It's too tempting ... I have to say it again ... Harry Potter ! :)

Has to be a toss up between 'The Color Purple' by Alice Walker or 'The Bell Jar' by Sylvia Plath

Damn, favourite book is a hard question. For me, it's a choice between the Expanse series by James S.A Corey, the Watches by Sergei Lukyanenko, the Discworld series by Terry Pratchett and Ender's Game by Orsen Scott Card. That's about as far as I can narrow it down

Scott

I'd have to say either the Percy Jackson series or Scythe

It’s only me

I'd probably have to go with the His Dark Materials trilogy

The Percy Jackson series is fantastic. Have you read the Kane Chronicles or the Heroes of Olympus? They're fantastic

I have, I also read the Magnus Chase books. Rick Riordan is such an amazing author imo. So many fantastic books

I really like the Game of Thrones books. Hopefully he complete them and not only the TV Series.

I only got around to reading the first four, but  from what I've read, they're fantastic

Yeah, they are fantastic and the plot is unpredictable.

I guess you mean the 4th english book? In Germany every book is divided in two.

Yeah, the fourth english one. I didn't know they divided them in Germany. Was there a particular reason, or just to sell more copies?
