Writer's Block: More Island Time
[Error: unknown template qotd]
Only five things? At the rate I read, I would probably end up reading everything the first week on the island, and then wanting more books. I would probably really want to drag every bookshelf I owned along with me.
1. The complete works of Edgar Allan Poe.
2. A collection of all the Sherlock Holmes stories.
3. Good Omens, by Terry Pratchett and Neil Gaiman. Maybe include a complete works of both authors (since I’ve yet to read the Discworld series) to really leave me with a lot to read while I’m trapped on that island.
4. Dracula, by Bram Stoker.
5. Frankenstein, by Mary Shelley
And, if I had had any room left on that list, I would have added The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy, the novels that included Dracula (like The Dracula Tape) by Fred Saberhagen, The Last Unicorn by Peter S. Beagle, and Wicked, by Gregory Maguire. I’ve never read those last two.
