I haven't read James Joyce's Ulysses, but it has been on my list for a long time. I have so many books I like, it's hard to narrow down which ones I like the most, but I'll give it a try.
1. His Dark Materials by Philip Pullman. Has always been my favorite series and always will be.
2. The Forge of God by Greg Bear. An interesting take on apocalyptic events.
3. Empress (part one of the Godspeaker trilogy) by Karen Miller. The rest of the series is boring, but this book was interesting, showing the childhood and life of the enemy.
4. Age of Five by Trudi Canavan. Not perhaps the best fantasy out there, but entertaining enough to make me read it over and over again.
5. Ender's Game by Orson Scott Card. A book I enjoyed as a kid.
6. The Casual Vacancy by J.K. Rowling. I love the Harry Potter series, but to see Rowling write non-fantasy fiction for adults was a surprising treat.
7. Pride and Prejudice and Zombies by Jane Austen and Seth Grahame-Smith. Pride and Prejudice is my favorite classic and zombies makes everything better.

When I was young, there was a god with infinite power protecting me. Is there anyone else who felt that way? And was sure about it? but the first time I fell in love, I was thrown down - or maybe I broke free - and I bade farewell to God and became human. Now I don't have God's protection, and I walk on the ground without wings, but I don't regret this hardship. I want to live as a person. -Arina Tanemura
