The Shadow of the Wind

Still one of my all-time favorites. Although, this time I listened to the first half of the book on audio (because I've wanted my husband to read it for forever and we were road-trippin') and I found that I actually liked this book LESS when I heard someone else's interpretation of these characters. No matter. I switched back to print for the second half, and felt palpable relief at being back with my friends the way I had imagined them in the first place. I still love this book so much.
