My favorite book that I would want everyone to read would be HAVE SPACESUIT, WILL TRAVEL, written by Robert Heinlein. I read it when I was 30, and it was a terrific book! The main character wins a space suit in a contest, and then he gets into all kinds of trouble after that. Either that or THE MARTIAN, by Andy Weir. I read that one only just last month, and it is an exciting read that will have you on the edge of your seat! It's about an astronaut who is accidentally left behind on Mars, and all the things he must do to stay alive until he can be rescued.
What age would I want to be permanently? Probably 65, as I would be a senior citizen. I'm only a little more than 7 years away from that landmark now. I never cared overmuch for being young at all. I like being older and looking older. I do get respect from more people now that I'm getting close to 60. :)
But to be an old man in this society? I would need to have super powers just to survive, as long as we are being hypothetical, LOL!
