Do you have any books that you feel are Lolita or Lolita inspired? I myself like A College of Magic and Dolls the manga. Any others that are any good? Feel free to post your favourites to recommend!

For Manga, Kaori Yuki's works, especially Count Cain. A lot of Clamp stuff too, like card captor sakura and Chobits.
For other books, there are quite a few. My most favorite book is The Picture of Dorian Gray by Oscar Wilde, which is perfect for a Gothic Lolita. Other gothic novels from the time would be good as well. There are others, but I can't really think of them at the moment. ^^;;

The "Cain Saga," as in Earl/Count Cain and Godchild.

Cain is the ULTIMATE Dandy, and Merryweather is probably the cutest little Lolita of ALL TIME EVER. X3

I recently found a very cute but dark comic book called "Nightmares and Fairy Tales" by Serena Valentino that seems very gothic lolita to me.

I'm a really big fan of the Bizenghast (http://www.bizenghast.com) series. Dinah's outfits (and the artwork and storyline in general, really!) are to DIE for!

My fave Loli-esque manga is "Under the Glass Moon". Vol. 3 comes out soon. It's got dandy bishonen, lolita and aristicrat clothing designs, and the mother (Madam Botrolli) is based on Mana of Malice Mizer, she wears most of his costumes and she totally looks like him.
It's a great read, each book feels like I'm reading three or four books, lots of story ^_^ I got lots of my friends into it during high school X3

this might sound odd, but i think some of freud's work would be interesting as non-fiction loli. he wrote about how women were treated and how they were expected to act so it sort of goes along. now it seems like crap, but at the time it made sense. anyway, just a though. i'll go back to my general weirdness now :)
