Wow it seems like every time I turn around there is a new classic/modern parody book coming out. The only one I have read is Mr. Darcy, Vampyre and I found it to be pretty good. A family member gave me Pride, Prejudice, and Zombies I just haven’t had the time to read it yet. You wanna know what though, I think for Christmas I am going to treat myself to Angels and Dragons. It looks better than most and I think my mom may even read it too. What do you think of all these parody books? Have you read any, which is your favorite so far? Or if you haven’t read them yet, do you plan too?

I’ve never read this series by Micheal Moorcock. I wonder if they’re any good, they actually look familiar though. Maybe my mother has read them?! I don’t know, but for those of you who have read them, are they good? Would you recommend them?
