The Odyssey - Homer

This is perhaps my MOST favorite book. While I love many books and reading in general, The Odyssey is a timeless classic that is filled with adventure, heroes and monsters! I first read this book when I was in high school and again during a college literature class. It is one that I HIGHLY recommend.
