Can you recommend a good read?
I just finished Northern Lights and re-read Catch 22 with great pleasure - can you recommend a good read?
|
I hear DaVinci Code is fabulous. I read trash and am enthralled with the Sleeping Beauty series by Anne Rice.
|
I enjoyed Harlan Coben's No Second Chance & Gone for Good
as well as James Patterson's The Jester & Four Blind Mice I've gone back and read some of John Grisham's older ones too The Testament & The Partner I'm just starting Dean Koontz's Odd Thomas, I hear it's a really good read too. |
Bryce Courtenay - The Power of One, also Tandia by the same author
|
as of recent I have been re-reading most of what I have of Jules Verne. If you like thay kind of thing "20,000 Leagues Under the Sea" followed by "The Mysterious Island" are a good pair (I finished those over the end of summer/fall).
|
If you are a fan of the Wizard of Oz... I recommend reading Lion of Oz... uncovers the life of the cowardly lion.. from birth to the time he meets Dorothy... :) It was written by the original author's Great Great Grandson :)
Can you tell that I have a child? LOL IF it is adult material that you actually crave... I suggest Lilith's current reading series :) Either way... enjoy!!! |
I am gonna finish the series tonight;):slurp: I need a slave...it's that simple!
|
If you like science fiction then I heartily recommend anything my Robert A. Heinlein. If you want something more serious then I recommend psychology, it's an absolutely fascinating subject.
|
Just finished Big Bad Wolf by James Patterson. You know its an awesome book when 400 pages takes 24 hours. (either that or I just have no life).
|
I read Big Bad Wolf too, it was good but then I've enjoyed all of the Alex Cross series. Have you read When the Wind Blows and Lake House? (More Patterson)
|
River God by Wilbur Smith
If I were stranded on a desert island and stumbled upon a box from Barnes & Noble, I would want that book to be in it. |
Quote:
I swear only you think this way! Besides, wouldn't the box be soaking wet? :D I recommend "Fast Food Nation" and anything by Cal Hiaasen - his bitterness about development in Florida (along with his crazy characters) is hilarious! |
^^^ Carl Hiaasen has also just written a great kid's book but I can't remember the title.
|
If you like Sci-Fi and want to read Robert A. Heinlein start with Time Enough for Love. I am currently rereading E.E. (Doc) Smith's LensMan series
|
Thanks everyone - plenty to keep me occupied.
