Ecclesiastes. Not joking. What other book spells out the meaning of life and tells you how to be happy?

I'm kinda fond of Revelation and Chronicles is a tough read for me, but they are all useful.

Deuteronomy, Proverbs and Romans.

Actually, I hestiate to comment at all. Just when I think I know what the top ten or twenty are, someone leads me into a book I overlooked.

I think I'll go back and read Ecclesiastes.
