I like reading long, satisfying fantasy novels. I can really connect to their characters and fantasy is really intense. My favorite authors are David Eddings, Terry Goodkind, and Robin Hobb. I love their books because their characters are so developed. Plus I love the epic battle scenes and what goes on behind closed doors...

My bookcase is getting too small to hold all the books I have...
I like to read vampire books, horror books, mystery, fantasy and sci-fi, the paranormal, nonfiction on crime, psychology and perhaps some other topics that may interest me, classics (most), manga (Kaori Yuki's stories in particular), and some magazines like Rolling Stones and Writer's Digest. Oh, and stuff by Edgar Allan Poe. My favorite authors are Anne Rice, Tamora Pierce, Poe, Amelia Atwater-Rhodes, some others....My favorite books include the Vampire Chronicles, The Winter Prince, Hawksong and some others. I'm currently reading A Tale of Two Cities, The Jungle and True Crimes.
So there you have it.

I love all different kinds of books. Some of my favorites of all time have been A Separate Peace, Dead Poets Society, Of Mice and Men. I love Edgar Allan Poe, stories and poems, Walt Whitman, I also love fantasy novels some of my favorites are Robert Jordan and Margaret Weis and Tracy Hickman. I also enjoy Stephen King, Anne Rice and Dean Koontz for an easy read. Just recently I read A Million Little Pieces by James Frey and absolutely loved it, no matter how controversial it is. I also read the Five People You'll Meet in Heaven recently and enjoyed it.

I have a varied library at home.
My books range from Stephen King and Anne Rice to history/true stories, like the Civil War and books about Russian history, Egyptian history, and a lot of books on/of/by Native Americans. I also have a variety of books on ghosts and ghost stories.Also have a lot of mysteries. And there is two shelves devoted to the Bible and otherDevotional/Christian books
I guess my fav author is Stephen King as he has the most space taken up by one author. Course, Anne Rice is a close second, and in third place is Nora Roberts.

My favorite author is John Irving. I find his books challenging to get into sometimes but they are always worth the effort. I just finished "Until I Find You" - it was wonderful.

I really enjoy mysteries. I like anything that has to do with Sherlock Holmes. I am reading Caleb Carr's Sherlock book now - "The Italian Secretary."

I read lots of parenting magazines. I enjoy looking at mags such as People or Cosmo but don't want to spend the money to buy them.
