For me, it was a few years ago, and my family was on a camping trip in the 
Smoky Mountains. I was extremely bored and dismayed at the toilet facilities 
which had no sinks, and my sister had _Jhereg_ out and was reading it. I 
asked if I could borrow it and, as she never leaves home without at least 
five paperback fantasy novels, she let me. After I read the first page I was 
hooked, though my sister kept trying to spoil things for me by asking 
leading questions like "Have you got to Morrolan yet?" Needless to say, 
she's a hobo now, as well as a boring lurker on this list, so everyone try 
to draw her out by saying "Haha Jessica, you're a hobo!"

My favorite is still Jhereg, and Robin Hobb is my idol.
