.... Can I just like, I duno, post a picture of my overflowing bookshelf? No? okay time to make a long ass list....

Series:
•The Edge Chronicles (fantasy and amazing shit like sky pirates wooooah and so many cool creatures and stuff too~)
•The Looking Glass Wars (I may just have a thing for odd Alice in Wonderland remakes but... meh)
• Cirque Du Freak (certainly an interesting take on vampires - wish it lasted as long as it was planned)
• Da Vinci Code books (angels and demons, da vinci code and the lost symbol they made me think and wonder like daaaamn)
• The Kiesha'ra of the den of shadows (havent properly read the series since middle school but its got fantasy and wyvern people and it introduced me to William Blake so I love it)
• Inheart (or whatver youd call the trilogy. havent read the last but i adore the first two... I'm a fantasy junky in case you havent gotten that yet)

BOOKS:
• Poison by Chris Wooding (again fantasy, and interesting take on the fae and how worlds are run)
• The Foretelling by Alice Hoffman (about an amazon girl and her struggle through life as a rape baby and stuff.)
• The Road by Cormac Mccarthy (if you dont like this book you're like... i dunno - not human or something)
• Fight Game by K.Wild (its about a gypsy boy and he fights in some underground thing and crazy fantasy/experimental shit happens)
• Alice in Wonderland + Through the Looking Glass (classics~)
• World War Z by whoever im too lazy to get back up (for obvious zombie related reasons)

AUTHORS:
• Dean Koontz (mystery like viunbgvobg!!!! leaves me second guessing constantly, always on the edge of my seat)
• Iris Johansen (similar to Koontz but a lot easier to figure out and with female main characters and romance and that kinda stuff)
• Anne Rice (a few of her books were really awesome, others not so much, but i still like her... despite the fact i cant have sexy vampire fanfics cause her ass)
• John Grisham (usual hate things with the law but this stuff if just crazy man)
• James Patterson (i'd list his series under that section but ive only read two so.. yeah. Another horror mystery type thing.)

Thats all I can think of without getting off my bed and actively scouring my bookself :d SO yeah....

World War Z is by Max Brooks, I only know because it's right next to me lol. I have to read it for a class soon. It's a good read then?

In my opinion, it was an amazing read. Totally would love to read it for class.

No, no I did not imagine Hetalia through the entire thing, what are you talking about? /shot

I'm now way more interested to read this...

You have to have sort of a good memory though. Some of the later passages refer to earlier ones... I had to flip back a few times >x<;

Thank you! I think I'll have to sit down and write out the ones I want to get on Thursday (yay for extended trips to the library!) Cause I've been dying for something new and interesting to read.

I tried the Looking Glass Chronicles once but...I had a hard time getting into them...I might have to try again.

(forgot James Patterson....shoot)

I have a ton more in my personal library :I just too lazy to get up and catalogue shit. If you want suggestions for any of the authors let me know ;D

Mr. Murder by Dean Koontz is trippy~

Can't remember the first time you picked up a book eh~

Seriously, half his books are head trips from i dont even know where. I have to surpress myself from yelling at people when they interrupt me from reading his books X'D

XD Well I remember my mom reading "The Secret Garden" to me when I was like....4? And I've been reading (maybe not that level when I was so little) ever since.

I read one of his series that was meant for a younger audience than most of his horror/mystery novels and I enjoyed it, but I never finished it cause I heard it kinda lost where it wanted to go...
