Books:

I recently finished all the available Harry Potter Books. I'm rereading them, and am sad that the final one won't be out for probably 2 years. My favorite book of all time is The Talisman. The Dark Tower Series is my next favorite (and the Talisman is in a way related)... pretty much anything Stephen King has done, I enjoy. I only have a few of his books left to read. I dig the classics too: Dracula, Frankenstien...
I'm pretty much a horror/sci-fi/fantasy nut... though light on the fantasy. Oh, and thank God for audiobooks, otherwise I wouldn't have time to "read" at all anymore.
