Favorite books and what books did you grow up with?

[SPARK]

What books do you guys like? I really like Animal Farm and the Little White Bird; I grew up on those two. What kind of books did you guys grow up with? I want to expand what I'm reading now, so I want to know what books you guys like so I could read them.

Well personally I mostly read graphic novels and comics as a kid but for like actual novels I loved the Percy Jackson books.Now for comics I could probably go on for ages, one of my favorites was the walking dead comics (im aware I was way too young to be reading those).

 I also loved like captain underpants by Dave likely as juvenile as many of his books were they helped encourage literacy and creativity in children such as myself :3. Last but not least I loved reading the halo novels, my dad's a huge gamer so he got a lot of them back when the Bungie games were coming out in the aughts.

My favorite halo novels were Eric Nylund's 4 novels that came out from 2001 to 2006 and "Halo Evolutions" Wich came out in 2009 and featured stories from the halo universe by various authors (most of which Were Canon to the lore!!!)
