BEA day 8 Bookshelf wonders

Happy second week of Advent!


Today I am going to take you on a book ride.. To my bookshelf..

Obviously it would take way to long to go through my whole bookshelf, but I will give you a glimpse of reading material that I read continually! And before you get your nerd hat on and declare that a true elvish fan would have Tolkien in there bookshelf, I don't actually own the series (excluding the first book) and they haven't been unpacked yet..
Yes I know, the horror...
Okay without further delay lets get down to business in no particular order, choice contents of my bookshelf.

Number 1: Eragon Series

Obviously I only have Eragon, but I thought it best to just put them all up here (excluding Inheritance which i have not read yet) for the sake of saying that these books are really well done, though sometimes could be mistaken for a copy of Tolkien.
Don't watch the movie..

Number 2


Now I have the entire collection of James Herriot and I absolutely love his works. All creatures great and small has me reading late and laughing loud. He is just the best writer/biographer in the world and I love the way he explains his stories. If you have ever lived on a farm with animals you will understand all of this.

Number 3
Classics

Jane Austen's Emma and Sense and Sensibility. Mr Midshipman Easy and The Odyssey.
These books are just classic and will never go out of history.. Unlike Twilight :)

Number4
Regina Doman Series

Listed in series:
Shadow of the Bear: Absolutely excellent, Regina Doman is an excellent authoress and can retell a story like no other. She gives it a very modern twist, though it can be a little dark at times her message is very pro-life, pro-christian, and pro-virtue.

Black as Night: I found this book not as good, Blanche was never my favorite and I found her to be Snow White a little dull, though this book is a good stepping stone to Waking Rose, Blanche was boring..

Waking Rose: THIS BOOK ROCKED! This was the favorite because I really like the plot and the edge in all of the characters, we don't get to hear from Blanche as much and Alex the awesome and his friends are just the guys I would marry.

Midnight Dancers: (not part of the SOTB series) I did not enjoy this one as much just because the females in this story were really naive, though it sent a good message, one of the scenes was a little gruesome. This book I recommend for 14+ just because of one chapter that was a little dark.

Alex and the 40 Cybertheives: This book was really cool! It started off a little slow but it was all good, I really like Alex O'Donnell and his girlfriend was a good lead heroine. The plot is also very good.

Number 5:
Good Old C.S. Lewis

Mere Christianity, The Screwtape letters and the Chronicles of Narnia. Excellent works of literature and so enjoyable!

Number 6
Last but not least my favorite stories growing up;
Just So Stories by Rudyard Kipling

The way he imagines things are exquisite and I absolutely loved growing up with this book. I have so many memories attached to these stories. If you ever need to learn how the elephant got his nose or how the camel got his hump... Read some Rudyard!
And just as a side note his poetry is excellent as well.

This concludes a peek inside of my reading, though I have so many other books of note I think this covers the basis (though I would add Tolkien and J.K Rowling at some point) of my imaginative mind.

Until tomorrow I remain
In Christ
