17. The Knot Guide to Wedding Vows and Traditions by Carley Roney: This was the only book I found at the store that wasn't a total piece of sappy crap. It has ceremonies from different religions and cultures and tons of good readings.*
18. Hellboy vol. 3: The Chained Coffin and Others by Mike Mignola: Nice continuation of the Hellboy story with a good introduction to Hellboy's origins. Good Werewolf story and Roger's origin story.
19. Hellboy vol.4: The Right Hand of Doom by Mike Mignola: Nice background on the stone hand and a baby Hellboy short! So cute.
20. Hellboy vol. 5: Conqueror Worm by Mike Mignola: Hellboy and Roger battle a giant Nazi alien worm.
21. Hellboy vol. 6: Strange Places by Mike Mignola: Hellboy's journeys after he leaves the bureau.
22. B.P.R.D vol.1: Hollow Earth and Other Stories by Mike Mignola: Abe, Roger, and several new guys on adventures. I liked it, because Abe is my favorite secondary Hellboy character.
23. Pride Of Baghdad by Biran K. Vaughan & Niko Henrichon: This was beautifully drawn and written. It was such a good graphic novel, totally heart wrenching. It really makes you think.
24. Coraline by Neil Gaiman: Super creepy children's story. Ewww, buttons.
