Isn't that the best reason though?

I don't think anyone has ever asked me that.

You just don't know how to explain it. This is why it's important to interact with the text in someone by writing about it or discussing it. Maybe, through your own dialectic between you and the text, you will decide you don't really like it as much as you thought. Maybe you just haven't been active enough. Time to start.
What's your favorite book anon?

Who asks people this? I can understand music, television or movies, but books? And who has the gall to ask you to enumerate? Are you in some kind of club?
