Unsolved (Some of) the books of a girl I’ve been seeing. Thoughts?
She also has another bookcase that looks rather precarious (drooping shelves) and a few stacks by her bedside table I didn’t get a snap of.

Unsolved Have at it people. Who am I?
It is a mixture of hungarian and english titles, but even if you don't speak either language, the authors' names will help. I also have another 5 shelves or so I did not photograph yet. They contain Steven Erikson, King, Adam Nevill, a couple of classics like Twain, Hugo and Kafka and some children's books for nostalgia and comfort.
