I was passing by a bookshop today and saw an old copy of Secret Seven by Enid Blyton and that took me down memory lane. It seems the new generation are not too much into reading books but spend more time on social networks. Those who do read tend to go for Kindle e-Readers but I find that a hardcopy is more pleasant to read.

So what books did you use to like reading when you were younger?

Hi, well for me, Ive always been crazy about Stephen King and H.P Lovecraft horror fiction books. Stephen simply is the King. From every writer I know is he the most genius writer. Cheers

I like comic books like marvel/dc superheroes, old one like asterix&obelix or smurfs etc.. I'm too lazy to read a book with words only...therefore comics are entertaining and they give me courage to read.. :p

Classic! How about adventure books without comics?

Stephen King was my favourite and still is but I no longer have the time to read such large books. I also vaguely remember Sweet Valley High by Francine Pascal lol

Yes he enjoys his writing and gets really into his books, hence their size, lol

True, he is so involved that he also starred in a few of the movies

Christopher Pike was my favourite with novels like :

  • Slumber Party
  • Chain Letter
  • Spellbound
  • Whisper of Death
  • Die Softly
  • Bury Me Deep

And his Spooksville series was fantastic :

  • The Haunted Cave
  • The Cold People
  • The Wishing Stone
  • Night of the Vampire
  • The Little People

Wow, what a flashback!

I read a few of his books too and if I remember correctly, there was another children series called Goosebumps on the same shelf in the library as his ones.
