I have been so addicted to the Twilight saga that I have had a very hard time reading anything else lately. I was able to distract myself with a few of the Harry Potter books, but then went straight back to my favorite vampire.
About a month ago my mother and I went to a used book sale and I bought DOZENS of books! I love all of the books I got! Mostly travel books, coffee table books, art books, and a few classics. I also got a few books by author Neil Gaiman (wrote the children's book Coraline) at the recommendation of my friend.
I started out with Neverwhere. I didn't really love it at first but I got sucked in more and more as I read...which is actually, I could tell later, exactly how the main character of the book is with the adventure he goes on.
To me, this book is Alice in Wonderland meets Wizard of Oz meets Gothic underground London. It's very good and I enjoyed it thoroughly.
Now I am reading a young adult book by Gaiman called The Graveyard Book. This one I seem to be having a harder time getting into, but it's still very good and the storyline is quite unique! After this I'm going to give Vanity Fair a try, since I love the movie so much (the newer one, I haven't seen the classic yet).
