Friday Fiction: Favorite Book?

Today, I’m at The Strawberry Festival in Moulton, AL, selling books with three of my author friends, Teresa Smyser, A.S. Hardin, and Bonita Y. McCoy. So, in lieu of a post, let’s share our favorite books. I personally don’t think I can pick only one.

To Kill a Mockingbird by Harper Lee
Rooms by James L. Rubart
The Lord of the Rings by J.R.R. Tolkien

How about you?
