My favourite Books are "The Vampire Chronicals" by Anne Rice.

I am such the huge Anne Rice fan!!!  

Also, I read a lot of fantasy, mythology, occult, poetry and I also love the classic novels.  Authors besides Anne Rice I like are: H.P. Lovecraft, J.R.R. Tolkien, Edgar Allen Poe, W.B. Yeats, and Shakespeare (my absolute favorite!) just to name a few.

As for my magazine weakness...I subscribe to Astronomy, Discover, Scientific American, Realms of Fantasy, and Psychology today.

As someone who loves to read; this list only hits the tip of the iceberg.

ill read any non-fiction book.  i like certain classic fictional books, but they have to be really good to keep my interest.  mostly, i just go to the thrift store and find something i know very little about and read a book on it.   ill do the same with any of the classics that i haven't read yet.   i never pick up a useless book though- one without knowledge to be gained.  i despise detective books, horror, or any meaningless fiction.  come to think of it, the only fiction books i like are ones about social issues: 1984, Animal Farm, Lord of the Flies, Fahrenheit 451, etc.  

i keep filling in the blanks in my knowledge.  i am the kind of person who will read a 2500 page nursing textbook because i have to know what nursing is all about.  i read extremely fast and with insane comprehension.  i should be a researcher.

I'm a big fan of classic literature, so I don't read a lot of "new stuff".  I liked the List of 7 by Mark Frost, though.  My favorite books are:
Count of Monte Cristo (UNABRIDGED!!!!!!!!!) by Dumas
Shogun, Tai Pan, and King Rat; by Clavell
Treasure Island by Stevenson
Through the Looking Glass by Carroll/Dodgeson
Le Morte D' Artur by Mallory
Don Quixote by Cervantes

Oh, and of course Harry Potter!  I was wrong not to throw some propers at it!


As for magazines, I read Golf Digest and Newtype (THE anime magazine).
For the articles, of course!
