    So i read alot of Books in-game. 

    I've spent countless rainy days inside a Shack on the side of a Road or a Dungeon i just cleared reading Books and waiting for the Night to pass or the Storm to subside. 

    Doing this i found a Few Books that stood out to me. 

    Those Books were  

    Three Thieves: For its interesting Story, Techniques for Thieves and the great Ending.

    Amongst the Draugr: A fascinating look into the Routine of Draugrs and their Purpose in Unlife.

    The Doors of Oblivion: An interesting and captivating Journey across multiple Oblivion Planes.

    The Cabin in the Woods. A good short Story for reading besides a Campfire.

    Purloined Shadows. Stealing from a Deadric Prince? Yes Please! Great Build up to the confrontation and a great Ending.

    What are youre favorite Books?

    See, now we're sucking the right tit! You've some good picks there, I definitely agree with Purloined Shadows and Doors of Oblivion. In addition, i know i don't feel complete until I have at least one shelf holding all volumes from the Song of Pelinal. The Remenada and Adabal-a normally end up on the same shelf. Hell, who am i kidding. All the books end up on my shelves :D No matter the character, if I'm not collecting books i just feel like I'm doing wrong :D

    Oh boy, some of my favourite books go back to the older games!


    The Book of Holidays from Daggerfall | Arcana Restored Wapna Neustra | A Dance in Fire Waughin Jarth |A Travlers Guide To New Sheoth And The Shivering Isles Brenith Aralyn |

    These are but a few!

    I am quite content to gather up Lore Books and the like and spend some 'off-time' from questing to read them all!

    I second Cabin in the Woods and The Doors of Oblivion - this one was an inspiration for a roleplay profile/build/story I wrote not too long ago.

    Also, Palla, both volumes. I loved them in Oblivion and was happy to see them back in Skyrim. 

    I think my favorite things to read, though, and keep on bookshelves are letters and journals I pick up from people, either people I’ve helped or failed to help, or happened upon in the wild, or bad guys I’ve looted. I mean lore is fine and all, but all those personal stories are just the best. Oh! I also should mention that I will always collect Alduin is Real and He Ent Akatosh. Always.

    I sometimes keep journals but i never keep notes on the Shelfs. I usually scatter them across tables. I dont like how they look between actual Books ^^
