I have every book in the series so far. They're amazing!
And anything by David Eddings though I think his Belgariad series will always be my favourite.

I have alot of non-fiction stuff, autobiographies, stuff on the paranormal etc.

My favourite non-fiction would have to be Tom Slemens "Haunted Liverpool" series.

Fiction, I read alot of H.G. Wells, and I just got finished reading J.D. Salinger's "Catcher In The Rye" which was a good... read.

Lately too I've been reading some Shakespeare, namely The Winters Tale and Much Ado About Nothing. I find it a little hard to understand but I'm getting there.

The Bible for toilet paper as it usually has soft pages.
Has anyone ever made a book from rice paper? You would need food.

My favourite book ever is 'Death in the Afternoon' by Ernest Hemingway, I never thought I'd fall so in love with a book about bullfighting, but it is AMAZING.

I would take Slaughterhouse 5 by Kurt Vonnegut Jr to a desert island.
Why?

To read (and possibly eat)
