This question may have been asked before but I was wondering what are some of your favorite fiction books you have read?
Some of mine are
Gap Creek--Robert Morgan
The Red Tent--Anita Diamant
The Persian Pickle Club--Sandra Dallas
Alice's Tulips-Sandra Dallas
The Rosewood Casket--Sharon McCrumb
The Edge of Heaven--EVa McCall
To tell the truth I love any book set in the mountains about mountain folks. I could name more but this is a pretty good list.

I love old books, especially ones about rural life. I love a book from the 40s or 50s called "The Egg and I" by Betty MacDonald. It is about a couple who buy a dilapidated chicken farm and the mishaps that they experience while making it a working farm. It is a delightful book, and it was made into a movie with Fred MacMurray and Claudette Colbert.

I agree with the Clan of the Cave Bear series. I love it.

Also the Left Behind series.

Other books I love:

Wuthering Heights

Girl of the Limberlost - for those who love rural settings, this is a great one. It was a favorite of my mom's when she was growing up, and became a favorite of mine too.

Freckles- by the same author as Girl of the Limberlost, and another great story.

Where the Red Fern Grows

Where the Lilies Bloom
