Best or Favorite?
Are “best” and “favorite” the same thing? If someone asked you “What’s the best book you ever read?” would the answer be the same as for “What’s your favorite?”
~~~~~~~~
“Best” are the well-written books you enjoyed, but “Favorite” is one you will read over and over again, even if it is not well-written.
For me, a “Best” book would be a well-written classic I read because I wanted to read it. It could be a bit boring, but I would read it anyway, just to be able to say, “I’ve read that.”
Classics such as: Little Women, Wuthering Heights, A Christmas Carol, Moby Dick, Hamlet, Uncle Tom’s Cabin, and many more.
The best book I ever read was ‘Walden’ by Henry David Thoreau.
What’s my favorite book? Jonathan Livingston Seagull by Richard Bach.

I agree – I’ve read many books that would be consider “best” but they aren’t necessarily my favorites.
