What about you guys? Do you still enjoy the books you read as a kid today?
For "bathroom reading" (as we call it here) I preferred Agatha Christie and Robert E. Howard's "Conan" stories.
My husband was a big fan of Narnia.
I used to love the cartoon series. Have you heard about the racism controversy surrounding the books, Michel?Give me a good old "Tintin" book anyday......
Ian Serraillier. I haven't thought about book for years, but I loved it when I was a kid. I had it under the American title; it was published here as Escape From Warsaw.i also read The Silver Sword, which was a WWII novel, though i can't remember who wrote it, or if i still have it
Robert Heinlein. That was one of my bedtime stories, too.Around 10 or 11 I started an in-depth habit of reading Science Fiction and one of my favorite books was HAVE SPACESUIT WILL TRAVEL but the author of that book escapes me.
I should go put that in the "What should be made into a film thread?" thread.Robert Heinlein. That was one of my bedtime stories, too.
Around 10 or 11 I started an in-depth habit of reading Science Fiction and one of my favorite books was HAVE SPACESUIT WILL TRAVEL but the author of that book escapes me. I also had a librarian who started censoring me at that time. I would bring some books up to the counter and she would tell me if I was allowed to read them or not. I used to wait outside the library and approach adults and offer them money to go in and pick up those certain titles for me.
I don't recall reading what would be called "Young Adult" books today. We had the Hardy Boys and Nancy Drew, but I thought there were kinda milquetoast and predictable. :sleep:
