Not an easy question, cannot restrict myself to only one. The following will be just a tiny part of my list of favourite books, in random and strictly non-hierarchichal order.
a.) Astrid Lindgren - Die Brüder Löwenherz (The Brothers Lionheart); favourite book of my childhood, together with almost all of Lindgren's works.
b.) Donna Tartt - The Secret History; really great book. Eye witnesses report that I almost got a crush on one of the main protagonists while reading it. They are liars of course and just want to gossip. But the book is really really great
c.) I can't help mentioning Laurence Sterne's The Life and Opinions of Tristram Shandy - the hardest battle I ever fought and won against a book. Since I defeated it I love it.
