Island by Aldous Huxley 1984 by George Orwell Stranger in a Strange Land by Robert Heinlein 'The Vampyre', 'Deliver Us From Evil' and 'Supping With Panthers'a series by Tom Holland Misery and The Shining by Steven King Dune by Frank Herbert And that's about all I can think of right now.
I cannot be disputed that the Harry Potter series is worth a read, but everyone and their mother has read them so I won't include that. Some of my favourite books are; The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo Robopocalypse Extremely Loud and Incredibly Close There's a book about Paris that I loved but I can't remember it's name. No bugles, No drums was a good one.

Where to go for a free fuck? Eat, Run, Stay Fit and Die anyway You give me six weeks and I'll give you some bad disease Why You should never mumble with a Policeman The Stains in your shorts can indicate your future Earn big money while sitting in your car trunk Where to take a short woman I Gave Up Hope, And It worked Just fine Why you should never yodel during an electrical storm Why you must never give your self a neck operation Lightweight summer ensembles to wear on the toilet Why you should not sit more than six weeks in your own filth. Are just of some my favourite classics
If you're into machine-pistol toting vampires, harley-riding dusters, kung-fu babes, gang wars and the archetype of cool, cig-smoking, one-liner dealin' protagonist, the very best out there is the Joe Pitt series by Charlie Huston. Starts off with Already Dead. It's got the best characters, the best violence, the best sex and the most gripping romance story underneath it all Lots of punk, depravity and graham greene going on
Invisible Man by Ralph Ellison The Stand by Stephen King Between Here and the Yellow Sea by Nic Pizzolatto Songs of a Dead Dreamer and Grimscribe by Thomas Ligotti The Given Day by Dennis Lehane Dubliners by James Joyce Heart of Darkness Catcher in the Rye IT One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest Salem's Lot Lovecraft overall, anything Lehane, plenty of King, idfk Sent from my iPhone using Grasscity Forum
