No I'm not talking about the novels but the in-game books that you can collect.

I never found all the books of the wolf queen. I think book 6 is missing.

There's a book that tells the story of Olaf-One-Eye (not the one associated with the quest), that fills in the story about the guy. Interesting

I also liked the Wolf Queen series and Physicalities of Werewolves.

One book that I really enjoyed reading was "The Locked Room." It is somewhat of a dark story, but a good story nonetheless with a good lesson. Plus you gain a lock picking point skill for reading it. Here's the link: http://elderscrolls.wikia.com/wiki/The_Locked_Room

As far as other specific books, I can never remember their names. But I really like all of the books involving the Daedra. Another good book was about the cabin in the woods with the dead wife haunting the woods and all that.

I honestly never thought of actually reading the books until I went back to Oblivion and did the Armorer Master quest. I didn't know that some were actually pretty good. These are my favorites.

The Armorer's Challenge

Thief of Virtue

Chance's Folly

The Locked Room

I actually have a mod (on the steam workshop) that adds the entire hobbit book to skyrim in one book, so since I haven't really read much other skyrim books (in my morthal house I have a library filled with books I have been meaning to read) I guess the hobbit is my favorite.

Was disappointed by Yngol and the Sea Ghosts, and Horker Attacks. I've read volume one of The Lusty Argonian Maid, and that was interesting. I've several books on the shelf at Hjerim that I've been meaning to read.
 
Granted I haven't read an overwhelming amount of them all the way through. But I have read The Immortal Blood, and The Lusty Argonian Maid. Enjoy those both for very different reasons. ;)

"A Dance in Fire" is my favorite. It's an intriguing story, and a fantastic glimpse into the mysterious land of Valenwood.

I also like "Physicalities of Werewolves". Because the idea of vivisecting a person to observe the effects of the transformation on the internal structures of the body is a pretty novel and fascinating (if morbid and morally bankrupt) idea.

The Locked Room - love the description of picking the locks. I could feel the anxiety.

A Dance in Fire

Argonian Account

Chance's Folly

The Armorer's Challenge

There's also a book about an Orc going mad after receiving a weapon for Sheogorath I really like but I don't remember the name

A Dance in Fire is my favorite book in the game too. I love the description of the tree cities and the capital made from a gigantic flower. This book is the reason I'm hoping the next game will be based in Valenwood

Being a TES military fanatic, I quite enjoy "Mixed Unit Tactics", "The Great War", "Ice and Chitin" and finally just for fun, "Breathing Water". It was quite humorous.:)

I've liked all the books I've read in-game, and can't really name a favourite - or even a top 5.

To name a few I remember really enjoying: "Chaurus Pie: A Recipe", "Immortal Blood", "Before the Ages of Man", "Lycanthropic Legends of Skyrim", "The Axe Man" and "A Hypothetical Treachery".

i'm forcing myself to read every book in the game I come across that I haven't read yet (yes this takes up a lot more time now.)
But a new book I read that I really enjoyed was The Myths of Sheogorath. How he gave musical instruments to humans :eek:

I think Withershins is funny. What makes me especially like it is that I only bothered to read it after a character from Interesting NPCs, Rumarin, said that it was his favorite book. So it was like I got a book recommendation from a fictional character.

and a new one I've found that made me smile the entire time I was reading it. Chaurus pie: a recipe. I really want to make the recipe. Just exchange the chaurus for chicken :p
