For me, yes,  It's a tie between Genesis, Isaiah, and Jeremiah.

What about everyone else?

I've always liked the Gospel of John.

     I like First Samuel, though that's probably because I always thought Samuel was an interesting guy.

The Gospel of John and James are my two favorite.  I like Romans too.  I would have to say that Maccabees 1 and 2 are my favorite OT books.

For books that aren't in the Bible, I like the Acts of Thomas and 1 & 2 Clement.

We don't even consider that part of our Bible.

I Samuel through II Kings.  The most accessible, interesting, and fun-to-read section of the Bible for me.

Which gives you something in common with Protestants... be happy.

I don't believe in much of anything in any of them, but Revelations is pretty kick-ass. Also, the Song of Solomon, Malachi, and Esther.

It was either a lucky guess or the fact that you wrote the name of the book in Latin Wink

I like Isaiah, although I prefer 2 Isaiah to either 1 Isaiah or 3 Isaiah.

The Book of Joshua trumps all.

My least favorite is Revelations... that just scares the sh!t out of me.

     Revelations is like a medieval epic poem. Makes me think of Beowulf in particular.
