I absolutely love the last vampire series but lets not forget that im a horny teen lol

at 21 years old, i still believe im a horny 16 year old sometimes :P

Sita remains the strongest and most loved female protagonists in my heart. altho the last part somewhat lost me when she went to the starlight crystal, but Damn that Arturo for screwing everything up and giving her a way to alchemize her blood!!! Out of all her lovers Yaksha and Ray seem to be the ones who stick out in the story. Yaksha made me cry in the end.

[Matt.B]

ya the last one was confusing. But out of them all I like yaksha the best.

Dahl is awesome
I read the last vampire probably 8 years ago and I remember I liked it... maybe I'll reread it

I loved the Last Vampire books....awesome reading I also liked reading RL Stine, simply because I could get through at least 4 books a day

Also love The Crysalids by John Windham (I think, all my books are at the new place and I am at the old place lol).

Other books I enjoyed - most of the 'required' reading in school, with the exception of the older stuff (I am not a Shakespear fan ).

Of course my library is full with all sorts of awesome books....lately I have been reading the murder mysteries in the Mira collection. Some are great, and not at all like those easy romance books (Mira is a part of Harlequin). Ok this got a bit O/T

Dr. Suess---The Lorax

[spidergecko]

"To Kill a Mockingbird" - Lee (I have read this book over and over so many times)
"Watership Down" - Adams
"Mrs. Frisby and the Rats of Nimh" - O'Brien (another constant re-read for me)

Not sure if it's much of a kids book but "Fifth Business" - Davies (pretty much a staple in mid to late highschool) is superb.

Beatrix Potter's "Peter Rabbit" tales.

Island of the Blue Dolphins ---Scott O'Dell

I am sincerely disappointed with EVERYONE here.... have you forgotten the all time greatest children's book? Why does no one remember "Everybody Poops"!?!?

[treegirl]

personally I like "the gas we pass" better lol

Dr. Seuss will always have my respect.

Adian, to quote family guy, instead of "everybody poops", i'd recomment "you're a naughty, naughty boy, and that's concentrated evil coming out the back of you'.
