I am a Stephenie Meyer fan. (There I said it.) I just reread The Host and cried on the "last" page, even though I've read the book at least 4 times and knew there was more. I really love her books. They have their own section in my basement library. Unitl today.
This shelf has the books that I return to when I need a major escape. The Dark Divine totally fits the bill. If you have not read it . . . What are you waiting for? It is amazing.
This shelf is front and center, just where it needs to be when I am in "need" of them.
What are your escape books? Where do you keep them?
I love The Dark Divine. And even better, I love Bree Despain. She is such a great person. This book should be on everyone's reading list.
ReplyDeleteI love the Dark Divine too. It was on my night stand for months as well. I keep my escape books close. I got a night stand with a shelf just so I could tuck my favorite books under there. Georgette Heyer books reside there year round. I've read them all at least 3 times and I still keep 5 or 6 around at any given time. I should really rotate them again. Thanks for the reminder DJ.
ReplyDeleteHmmmmm...Escape books....
ReplyDeleteI pick up The Lord of the Rings way too often. Other favorites are: anything Jane Austen, occasionally Harry Potter. I think I could revisit Mistborn fairly frequently once I own my copies. The thing is, I like to revisit books a lot. It just depends on my mood. But more often than not, if I'm looking for a serious zone out I pop in a Bourne movie or something similar.
Ditto the Jane Austen. I love Bridget Jones' Diary when I need a laugh. I confess I have Twilight on my nightstand right now because obviously the romance in that story is loved by a lot of people and I needed inspiration for the romantic scenes in my book. I also love the wit of Dorothy Parker.
ReplyDeleteI just squeezed Austenland in as well :)
