I love sci-fi books. Books by William Gibson, Philip K. Dick, and Ray Bradbury are usually pretty much guaranteed to be great. They're all fairly different in the types of sci-fi they write, but I think they've all got really great style and fantastic stories. <3

I liked Lord of the Rings, it has just been so long since I read it. I should read it again :)

I just finished Magic and Manners by CE Murphy, it's a re-imagining of Pride & Prejudice with the heroine and her sisters magic-users. It was long but good!

Oooh, this I would like to read! "Magic and Manners"? I'll see if my library has it. Thanks for the recommendation. ^_^

I mostly came on to see if anyone had something light-hearted, with funny dialogue, to recommend to me. The catch? It can't be written in first person!

Good Omens, by Terry Pratchett and Neil Gaiman
It is a very good book. It has good in its name.

I have to second the Good Omens recommendation. Very good book, very funny, and the footnotes just add to it.

The Green Rider series by Kristen Britain is good, so is Dresden Files by Jim Butcher, Anne McCaffreys's Pern books as well as her Brain and Brawn books (The Ship Who Sang is the first one of those), and Alan Dean Foster's Pip and Flinx books.

I could go on for a while, honestly. I'd also add any books by Patricia Briggs, Stephen King, and Mercedes Lackey.
