Childhood books
When I was about eight or nine, I can remember always going into my older sister's room and borrowing her old horror books. I can also remember getting a subscription of books through Scholastic. I LOVED reading as a kid, and still do, and I would literally jump up and down with excitement when my books arrived in the mail.
Anyhow, I am going back through Ebay to get some of those old horror books, but I can't find a good lot to buy. I think I am going to have to buy them slowly, little by little. Most of them are Christopher Pike books from the late eighties and early ninties- the paperbacks with the brightly colored titles. My subscription was for Girl Talk books- I remember them because they were bright pink, and I had almost the whole series- I think I had almost 50 books. I had read them all at least four times. I also had a couple of Sweet Valley High books, but those weren't nearly as good.
So, what books do you miss from your childhood?
