My favorite book is “We Are The Ants”, by Shaun David Hutchinson. I first read this novel when I was in either the eighth grade or my freshman year. The premise of the novel is unlike any book I have ever read. It is about a teenage boy who gets kidnapped by aliens, and has to decide whether or not to save the world from destruction. However, it’s not a science fiction book, it is closer to realistic. The aliens are a metaphor for the boy’s mental illness, which is very interesting.

“Annals of the Former World” by John McPhee is probably my favorite book. The novel travels along Interstate 80, covering the geologic history of the entire country while also giving vivid descriptions of the cities and landscapes that I-80 passes by. The writing of the novel is incredible, getting across stunning amounts of information while also managing to be entertaining in its delivery. Overall, Annals of the Former World is a wonderful book, and is definitely worth reading.

My favorite book is “Green Eggs and Ham” by Dr. Seuss. I read it when i was a little kid and I wanted green eggs and ham for breakfast for like a month after I read it. I really enjoy Doctor Suess in general! I also read One Fish Two Fish Red Fish Blue Fish.

Probably “The Lord Of The Rings”, by J.R.R. Tolkien. I first read it in, probably... 6th grade. I love it because the work that Tolkien creates is so insanely elaborate, and the movies that came from the books are some of the best works of media ever. Furthermore, the story can parallel our world at times. Also the history of how and when Tolkien started creating Middle Earth is also incredibly interesting.

Ellie Landau

“Tuesdays with Morrie”. I first read it this year and I like it because its sweet, interesting, and makes you wonder about life.

“Sphere” by Michael Crichton, I read it the second semester of my junior year. I love the book because it keeps you in suspense the entire story. Reality is ambiguous throughout every section, and this kept me on the edge of my seat for hours. Up until this point I have never read a book so fast. I’ve also always been inspired by psychology, and the main character happens to be an accomplished psychologist. With crazy twists, often yet important main character deaths, and the chemistry slowly built between protagonists, this has proved to be my favorite sci-fi book I’ve read so far.

“The Complete Calvin and Hobbes” are my favorite books. Great illustrations along with amazing humor that works for kids, teens and adults. From fun sci-fi adventures to philosophical questions while riding a red wagon down a hill. My favorite story arc has to be when Calvin created a snowman that eventually in his mind started creating an army of snowmen filling up his entire front yard, confusing his dad when he gets back home. I won’t spoil what happens in the middle of the night but it is fantastic. I probably first read Calvin and Hobbes when I was around six or seven years old and I wished for The Complete Collection for my Birthday one year, and I’ve never forgotten it!
