Apart from those that were given to me as gifts, the first books I can recall buying were the Biggles series by Captain W.E.Johns. In my early teens I liked reading Westerns and one I recall particularly -- from around 1950 -- was The Two Gun Quaker. It was probably rubbish but I wouldn't mind reading it again to see.
Carrie by Stephen King. I remember it because I had to have a note from my Mom before the librarian would let me check it out. Probably because I was nine. :-)
It was one of those Golden books during the 50's and it was about Peter Pan.

One of the first books I remember was one about guineapigs which was from the library.
