My favorite book ever is Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil. Partly b/c it's so damn good and partly b/c it's about Savannah which is a city I know and love.

 

[Kakapo Dundee]

My favourite books of all times were Spike Milligan's war memoirs. I first discovered them as a teenager, when I as was taken by the zany cover pictures and the subtitled pictures , and I've read through them several more times.
