Oh, difficult. Tp quote a family story about a distant reletive who, as a child, was asked which of her dolls was her favourite

*They are all my favourite!"

Actually, if I have to narrow it down:

Interesting Times - Terry Prachett

Peoms of Tennyson

Set in Darkness - Ian Rankin

Northanger Abby - Jane Austin (I love the way the the whole of the first chapter is explaining why Catherine is not an heroine)

Left Hand of Darkness - Ursula Le Guin

The Foundation trillagy - Isaac Azimov

Oh, oh, Ive left out PG Wodehouse... and CS Lewis..... and the Bronte sisters..........

I could go on for ever.

I agree about Satre, but he makes an interesting read. Ive not come across Camilla Lackberg - I must look out for her.

I think we have probably got quite similar tastes

Must admit that I like the Wallander series and I have read nearly all of the Rebus books by Ian Rankin.  I also like the Women's Murder Club series by James Patterson.

[bookworm26]

Ive tried several books by Patterson, but Ive never managed to warm to his writing. I dont know why as he's quite popular.

Another popular writer Ive never managed to get into is Stephen King.

I love Stephen King.

[ilove2patch]

Me too, I think Dean Koontz & James Herbert are good too. Clive Barker is my favourite in that genre though.

Pops in to say Hello and welcome back to the boards

[captainbovine]

eeeww Ed, how could you???

is there something wrong with me, I prefer to read light hearted stuff, and humour. I do like the odd murder mystery though.

I read a lot too.

[ilove2patch]

I love horror & fantasy fiction.

[bitsnknots]

I don't like Stephen King either.

[ed_blackadder_1]

Love the Fog and Christine and would it be dream catcher?

[ilove2patch]

Clive Barker's Weaveworld is good.🙂

[ed_blackadder_1]

I will have to look out for that one Maggie.
