The Robert Pattinson Book Club: Rob's Reading List Finds A Home On The Blog
UPDATE: 2/28/13 - added 3 titles up top and another author. Some fantasy reading that Rob did when he was younger. Any of you have some young boys? Check out what Rob inadvertently recommends ;) These titles will also be added to our side bar widget for the book club.
Rob loves to read. We love Rob. Let's love what Rob reads.

Before you ask...yes the video cuts off right there. That's the editing of Harpo Productions *bitchface*)
The Oprah Show is gone and I sometimes wish Rob took her place. I could see him screaming at the audience like Oprah used to do...
Ok, she didn't scream like that but this is The Robprah Show. I want to know what shampoo he uses (even if it were an old hotel brand) or what kind of boxers he likes (oh we know that already) or his favorite restaurants (he'd hate it if we knew this) or what books he reads...
Oh wait! Rob
DOES tell us that sometimes! We like knowing some of Rob's favorite things and through the years, he's shared quite a bit regarding his reading list. Obviously he's read loads of things but I gathered a compilation of books he's mentioned in public over the past 3+ years.

We're adding links to the books on our sidebar!
You'll find all the titles on a scrolling widget that links you to their purchase page on Amazon (US & UK). I double checked to make sure the books could be traced to Rob. Some are pretty obvious, non? If you're wondering where a title came from, ask me in the comments and I'll link you.
