The film stars Charlize Theron as a washed up author of young adult novels who decides to aggressively stalk her high school sweetheart, now happily married and with child. Oh, and Patton Oswalt is going to be in it. This might make up for “Jennifer's Body.” No it won't.

What were your favorite childhood books? [ Note : Technically ILD was yesterday, but there's a case to be made that literacy is still important. Add your favorites below!]

  1. The 'Little House' books

    Classics.

  2. The Mennyms

    I don't know anyone else who's read this series but I absolutely loved it.

  3. Animorphs

    I started reading Animorphs because in 3rd grade I had to do a "sci-fi" book report. I threw a fit because I didn't like sci-fi...and only agreed to read this because it had a dolphin on the cover. A decade and a half later...my favorite TV shows are Star Trek and Supernatural and I've never looked back.

  4. Harry Potter

    This list would not be complete without the Harry Potter books. I won't get into my thoughts on the last two, but the first 5 were a golden part of my adolescence and will always have a special place in my heart.

  5. Add yours!

    What books will you always remember from your childhood?
