I married the one who has read aloud to me, among others, the entire Discworld series, Lord of the Rings, Dresden Files, and Murderbot, with good voices for each character. We're just finishing all of Douglas Adam's series.

Honestly, if I find out on a first date that they have a favourite book, I'm daydreaming about the wedding regardless of what the book is... unless it's like Mein Kampf or something equally horrific.
