Our formal question: What are your favorite books?

We're interested in all genres: fiction, nonfiction, poetry, children's, and/or some other hybrid. So include the book title(s), author(s), and what you like about the book(s).
Here are the guidelines:
- Provide an answer to the question "What are your favorite books?" in the comments below.
- Answers can be funny, weird, poignant, thought-provoking, entertaining, etc.
- Remember to include your name as you would like it to appear in print.
- Deadline for commenting this time around is February 29, 2020.
