I'd be curious to know how much Eric Harris read of those books. I would think he'd have kept them just to be edgy.

Vladislav Roslyakov read Shakespeare's ''Hamlet'' and was interested in military literature. I think he also read a nationalist pamphlet but I don't have the source right now.

This shooting is pretty obscure, but the Heath High School shooter Michael Carneal had a copy of Rage by Stephen King, which lead Stephen King to allow the book to go out of print.
Rage is a 1977 novel about a school shooting. (created by stephen king as i said before)

Brenton Harrison Tarrant discussed Hitler's Mein Kamph online (using the pseudonym Barry Harry Tarry in the private Facebook group The Lads Society Season Two.) He also bought Fascism: 100 Questions Asked and Answered by Oswald Mosley (sent to Lauren Tarrant for her partner) and The Decline of the West by Oswald Spengler and A Short History of Decay by E M Cioran (sent to Sharon Tarrant.) I would imagine he owned or at least read those books himself before sending them to his family.

Elliot Rodger read and was briefly fascinated with Gregory Garcia's The Secret Law of Attraction, a book his dad gave him. (He loved it initially, but when meditation failed to yield him winning lottery tickets, he almost ripped it apart in frustration.) (Source, pages 78-79.)

Ilnaz Galyaviev's favorite novel is Steven King's The Shining, saying that "he writes atmospheric." That makes at least six school shooters fans of King. He also likes Jack London, but I'm unsure of any particular works.
