I read Narnia and L.M. Montgomery (Anne of Green Gables, Emily, and Pat of Silver Bush) most intensely and proto-fannishly. I only had the first Black Stallion book, but I did love the heck out of it. And I had two of Blyton's Adventure books - The Circus of Adventure and The River of Adventure. (Oh god so racist in retrospect oh god.)
My older brother and I shared our books and, like the huge geeks that we were and are, quizzed each other on minutia of our favorites. Calvin & Hobbes comics and Piers Anthony's Incarnations of Immortality series especially. Oh, and around the time I turned nine I got DEEPLY into Edgar Allan Poe. I was a bit of an odd kid.
