Always difficult because it changes all the time.
I think WH is my favourite. Just such magic and fantastic story-telling. Then I struggle... PM, SD, PP and SA are all high up there because of my love for the Lakes. PM particularly triumphs from that perspective for me, and it's a great Nancy Blackett story (though I think her clashes with the adult world in the book may explain why Evgenia wasn't keen). But I love the Broads stories. Haha - and it might well be that SW and WDMTGTS are my favourites after all!!!
And GN is one of my favourites because of the birds. So I suppose I would conclude the PD and ML were my least favourites, not that I dislike either. This is why I should never participate in these threads as basically I love them all. I'm also growing more and more attached to what little we have of 'The River Comes First'.
