What books MUST you read every year!




Next up....Dark Hunters; specifically

Black Dagger Brotherhood...

Some non-vamp books...
To Kill a Mockingbird...this is a classic and is currently celebrating its 50th anniversary. This is timeless and will never become outdated.

The Book Thief...a Holocaust tale told through the memories of the narrator...Death. Such imagery and plot...and humor...so touching. A must-read!


Plus i have to thank Meyer and that series for one thing in particular! That series got me reading again, and back into the paranormal realm! So you wont get flack from me....lol Dan on the other hand is another story but i do believe we are in the same boat.....for one exception, it doesnt make my annual to read again list....lol

No. Even though I may not like it, I would never put someone down for it. We all have different tastes and opinions. I think Rj knows that already anyway. LOL.

Let's see...books you must read every year. They don't all have to be vampire books, right?
Well, I have to agree with Rayna about Dracula.I've read that book five times so far. I think if you really love that book, then you need to get a copy of this..
It's "The New Annotated Dracula". It's Bram Stoker's original novel only annotated By leslie S. Klinger. It contains over 1500 notes on information about the book, Hundreds of illustrations including artwork, photographs, and movie posters, an introduction to the book by Niel Gaiman, and even an alternate ending!
Around Halloween, I always try to read these..
Although Edgar Allan Poe can be read at any time of the year.
And, I have not read this yet, but next December I am making this book a tradition around Christmas. A Christmas Story,my favorite Christmas movie, was based off of this book..

Danny Boy! I love Edgar Allen Poe! I totally agree, you should read him throughout the year! Which is your favorite from him?

I agree with you and Tiff, RJ. There are so many books to devour and so little time to re-read. That and I have to write on a daily basis, so re-reading always is bumped:(

Oh you like him too...cool. Well, Angela...it sounds kind of cliche, but my favorite Poe story is The Tell Tale Heart.

Dan you have been talking about poe. have you ever read Fall of the House of Usher? My grandad loved him and always wanted me to read it, but I didnt know if it was any good.

Fall of the House of Usher was actually the first Poe story I read, the first time I picked up an E.A. Poe book. It's quite good.
