I don't read much to be honest, not actual books and magazines etc., but I do like to read articles about things, snips of educational material on Wikipedia, or searching for things as and when I need them in life.
I have, however read a few books, and the best are The Diceman, The Hobbit, 1984, Choosing Death: The Improbable History of Death Metal, Black Metal, Beyond The Darkness.
If we are including comics, then things are different, as I love Calvin and Hobbes, Peanuts, Invader Zim, Johnny The Homicidal Maniac, Lenore and more of that nature.

"Johnny the Homicidal Maniac"?!?! Sounds like it could be worth reading.

Ditto! Fahrenheit 451 is one of my favourites too ![:)]() Yes! Gamora It makes for the best films/ TV too. Always up for recommendations  Just managed to find one from when I was a kid called The Guardians by John Christopher. Will see if it has stood the test of time. |
