Re: Favorite book of all time
It's really hard for me to pin down one... can I give you the top 3? 
The Hotel New Hampshire- John Irving
A Tree Grows in Brooklyn- Betty Smith
Outlander- Diana Gabaldon
The Bronze Horseman- Paullina Simons
The World According to Garp- John Irving
OK, that was 5. I don't care.
And if you liked Water For Elephants, you will probably like John Irving. Same symbolism, recurring themes, etc.

i LOVE John Irving. Loved A Prayer for Owen Meany and Hotel New Hampshire. My favorite character in that book was Egg!

I'm trying to get into this book but I am having trouble. After this I am going to read a bit more and give it another try.

Stephen King - Salem's Lot
But I really do LOVE the Boleyn/Tudor series by Philipa Gregory, as well as her Wideacre Trilogy.

Re: Favorite book of all time
Wuthering Heights. I lover this book. The main characters are absolutely horrible human beings - but the love story is more genuine than any I've ever read.
And A Ring of Endless Light - it's a YA coming of age story by Madelaine L'Engle. I read it when I was a teenager and it became my anthem. I loved that book like I can't even begin to tell you.

The Stand by Stephen King. I've read all of his books, but, every couple of years, I will pick up The Stand and read it all over again.

I reread the Stand every year so that it coincides with the Fourth of July... yeah, I have problems
