Books From EC's Childhood and Teenage Years (Read in 80s and 90s)

Here is a (not complete) list of lots of books I read during my childhood up to my last year of secondary school. So many have been forgotten about, or I can only glimpse the cover in my mind - but not the useful bit with the title on it! I hope this list allows you to dredge up some ghostly memories of books past to enjoy. If using my list as suggestions for children's reading, please remember that my reading from 16-18 is included here and does have some very "adult" books on the list. So double check what they're about first!
