For the BookWorms

Think about it though, you started a thread that stayed clean for four whole pages. That's gotta be some kind of record around here. :thumb:
 
Well, I decided to give this thread some legs. I love reading and, well, I have a few authors and books that I can recommend.


Clive Cussler (The Dirk Pitt novels and Kurt Austin novels). This dude makes James Bond look like an unpotty trained 3 year old. Pitt does things and thinks of things that would blow your mind.

James Patterson: did anyone ever see the movies Along Came a Spider and Kiss the Girls? He was the author. These are the Alex Cross novels. He also has written others but the Cross novels imho are his best.

Patricia Cornwell: Body of Evidence with Madonna and Willem Dafoe.
Not a very good movie but the book is amazing. These are the Kay Scarpetta novels. Those are her best.

Jeffrey Deaver: How can anyone forget The Bone Collector with Denzel and Angela Jolie? These are the Lincoln Rhymes and Amelia Sachs novels...

Now that I have revived this thread, it woud be cool to see what else you guys can recommend...
 
Patricia Cornwell has some great books. :thumb: Really easy to get into and so hard to put down. I love the suspense.
 
I agree, there is another guy named Steve Martini, he's the Anti John Grisham. Grisham's books mostly had to do with the law and the use of the law. He then started going in a wrong direction that made his books boring. Martini's hero Madriani is a hands on lawyer. Anyone who liked Grisham's early stuff will love Martini's books....
 
Jodi, that's cool I like King also, especially his short stories.
Koonz is OK but IMHO King rules that genre.
Cornwell, I read her before, pretty good, is her main character Kay Scarpatta or something like that? or maybe that's from another female crime novelist?, maybe Tanmi Hoag sp?
My favorite books are, in no particular order
-The Old Man and the Sea
-Animal Farm
-Lord of the Flies
-The Great Gatsby
 
Hmmm.. a book thread... interesting....

OKay - a few of my fav authors in no particular order:

Albert Camus
Yukio Mishima
Osamu Dazi
Saul Bellow
Checkov
Truman Capote

To name but a few...
 
Anything by Dr.Seuss - just boggles me with its complexity. :spaz:

Ha! I didn't realise that - I only found it because someone posted on it today... Makes you wonder what other "treasures" are hidden deep in the sands of the forums just waiting to be uncovered....
 
It makes you wonder what the hell I was doing that I found this thread:nanner:
 
Well, since it's active now, might as well contribute.

DaVinci Code, and Angels and Demons by Dan Brown. They're page turners but it seems that he wrote them with future movies in mind. ;)

I've gotten addicted to his books!
He is my # 1 author now..and that is hard, s I was always a Clancy fan!
I also like the military action / suspense novels:
Steven Coonts, Dale Brown, I even got a kick out of reading the Richard Marcinko books.
 
Braham Stokers Dracula. Couldnt hardly set it down.

Ummm... i like everything. I tend to go in "spurts" though. I'll get addicted to one writer, read all his stuff, then move on to another.

So... everything from Shakespeare to Clancy to Vonnegut to my most recent R.A. Salvatore obsession. :D
Drizzt is probably one of my favorite characters out of a fantasy book ever. Glad to see others with these tastes.
 
My favorite authors would be Kathy Reich and Patricia Cornwell.

Ditto.
 
Another good author is Jonathan Kellerman...

Switching authors, one of the greatest authors I have ever read is Jeffrey Archer...Cain and Abel was my favorite of his...
