Ever wonder what your favorite celebrities are reading — whether it’s a timeless classic or the buzzy bestseller they can’t put down? Welcome to Page-Turners, where stars reveal the books that keep them hooked, inspired and up all night. Warning: your TBR pile is about to get a lot longer.
“Dungeon Crawler Carl” author Matt Dinniman loves books where a “sense of awe permeate the pages.”
“I’ve been reading my whole life, and after literally thousands of the books read,” the author told Page Six, “I think the books that resonate most with me are fiction with both unique characters and unique settings.”
Dinniman’s book “A Parade of Horribles,” out now, is the eighth book in his wildly popular “Dungeon Crawler Carl” series.
The series follows Carl and his ex-girlfriend’s cat Princess Donut as they’re forced to compete in an intergalactic reality show after an alien invasion.
For many, “Dungeon Crawler Carl” has topped their favorite books of all time, but here the six books that have stayed with Dinniman long after he finished them.
“This is the book that made me fall in love with the art of the written word. As an author, I don’t write anything even remotely similar or with 1/100th of the beauty, but this is the book I always come back to when someone talks about fantasy literature.”
“If ‘Tigana’ made me fall in love with the art of writing, this book made me fall in love with the art of storytelling. The book that made me want to be a writer. It fell into my lap at the perfect time in my life. I read it when I was 17 years old, which is the perfect age to consume this book.”
“This quirky novel about a kid who ‘spies’ on people and writes everything in a journal — that she ends up losing — is the book that made me fall in love with reading. It’s considered a YA classic for a reason.”
“The newest book on this list and recent winner of the Hugo. This weird tale of murder combines the best of Lovecraft and Doyle and is one of those stories that stays with you for a long time.”
“The first book in the gripping Commonwealth Saga space opera. It’s a long series that had me on the edge of my seat the entire time.”
“This odd, haunting novel about a man trapped in world filled with statues sounds like it shouldn’t work, but I was completely entranced the whole time. It easily rocketed up to the top of my favorites list.”
