Let's talk about books...

What are your favourite books? And your favourite authors?

I love Edgar Allan Poe and Howard Phillip Lovecraft (they are Geniuses!!!): all their novels are really great, and I'm also starting reading some of Poe's poetrys.

I've just finished "The Picture of Dorian Gray" by Oscar Wilde: a Must! Great Work, Really!!! And now I'm reading "The Castle of Otranto" by Horace Walpole: a short novel, so I have to find something to read then... I'm thinking to "The Vampire" by John William Polidori or "The Mysteries of Udolpho" by Ann Radcliffe, or "The Italian" by the same author, or "The Monk" by Matthew Gregory Lewis. Hard to find in my library... Have to check... :(

But the one I prefer over all the others is "Dracula" by Bram Stoker! GREAT! That man had a really great mind!!!

Ouch... Have I written too much?!? lol!

Waiting for you replies! :D

When I make a book I will be on that list!

But for now I am inspired by many people. My favourite book is Dan Brown's Digital Fortress.

The Da Vinci Code (book) has like 5hs more than the original movie >_> and there's more explanation. same thing happened with LOTR movies (first movie is 5h 30m lenght including deleted scenes. if we put the book content... maybe 8 or 9 hrs)

LOTR the film is alot like the book. alot more tahn harry poet books look like the harry poets films but with films made of a book the film will always be shorter because the books are to long for a movie. if LOTR movie would be like the book than people would really be sleeping when the triologi was in the (noes forgot the word ehh the thing you watch movies on a big screen) ;) the game da vinvi code is really stupid i think xD
