I saw this meme, what are your comfort reads, the books you turn to when you're having a really shitty day and you just want to go away for a while. *smiles* I have a few of those. However, because of the way we grew up (Mam's obsession was books, Dad's was film), I also have comfort films and comfort series that I'm equally as likely to turn to, and to bring with me when I'm travelling. So, I thought I'd run through all of them? Books, films, series. Lots.
The original meme had around 9 books, I think, but numbers vary here, because, um, I devour stories in pretty much any format. There are just the ones that are likely to be closest when I'm in need, but they are not comprehensive, even for comfort -_-;
Comfort Media:
And on top of all those, I could name you about a dozen or so cartoon series that I also gravitate towards under stress (DCAU, Avengers: EMH, Transformers, Pirates of Dark Water, Jonny Quest, etc). And these are ... far from comprehensive, either.
Media is my escape, yes? Stories. *smiles sheepishly* I read, I watch, I devour. I also write. Fanfic, a lot. Also many of my own (see 'original fic' tags for the universes), long and complicated stories that don't really end. I live my life in a network of a billion stories, and it carries me though ... quite a lot, really. Heh. *shrugs, smiles* And so.
