Edgar Allan Poe's "Black Cat", "Fall of the House of Usher", "Hop Frog", and the "Masque of the Red Death." I've also a few Mark Twain stories, though, mainly ones my teacher pointed me out to. Definitely seems like I'm pointing out English class assignments, but I'm just a sucker for older literature. Eh heh heh.
On other note, I've been wanting to pick up one of Stephen King's classics like Pet Cemetery, or maybe the Mist. Both of the movies were great, but everyone knows the book is always better. |

Edgar Allan Poe: "The Tell-Tale Heart", "The black cat", "The Pit and the Pendulum".
Stephen King: "The Shining" and "IT".
Bram Stoker: "Dracula"
Antoine de Saint Exupéry: "The Little Prince" (Yeah, when I was child, i read it)
Those novels are the best ones I read so far, but I haven't read a book in months or maybe years... I think
its time for a bit of literature. |

I just finished Harry Potter 7 (Slowpoke.jpg) and a HUEG Sherlock Holmes compilation.
Oh, and 646 chapters of Detective Conan. But Manga doesn't count as books, right? =D |

Um, I'm reading Catcher in the Rye right now...
This is the only book I'm actually reading and finishing, as compared to the rest of my high school career.
Does this explain much? ^^; |

| Not really. You just tend to get most of your reading material inside school. That's alright. I also got a lot of my literature from passed English classes. It's actually not until this year I started looking into books on my own. Those being non-manga material. I believe I've got too much of that already. :B |
