Harry Potter would be fun. LOTR and A Song of Fire and Ice series would be pretty epic.

Truthfully, The Mortal Instruments Series. It would be sick to be a shadowhunter!

I can totally sympathize with the people who are responding with Harry Potter, the Chronicles of Narnia, and The Lord of the Rings, but I am telling you - it is all about Charlie and the Chocolate Factory.

Lord of the Rings and Narnia, of course ...
Also the Brother Cadfael books, set in Shrewsbury, England on the Welsh border in the 1100s.

Actually, I find the places and times that it's the most fun to read about, tend to be those that would be hardest to live in. For example, books about the British navy such as The Far Side of the World ... and Seven Daughters and Seven Sons, set in medieval Persia, beautiful story, but why would a woman like me want to travel to medieval Persia, am I crazy?

Definitely the Mortal Instruments Series, like someone already quoted, it would be awesome to be a shadowhunter! And I hope with the second movie, if it ever does come out, that they do a little better job than the first.

This is an interesting concept, and one I have always given a lot of thought. There's actually an entire world based around the idea of entering books, called Myst. It started as a computer game, but official novels have been written; I think anyone who looked at this thread might find the books interesting.
That's the book I would jump into as well, not only can you enter timeless classics, but you can write your own world, provided you have the training.

I would pretty much would go into any paranormal or fantasy book. I would be a vampire, werewolf, wizard, demigod or shadowhunter. Maybe I can be all of them and be divergent.:-D
