I am currently reading James Patterson's Kill Me If You Can and have two new Patterson's on my Christmas wish list. I find James Patterson to be the type of reader that just snatches you and takes you on a wild ride that is over too soon.

Hello I like to read James Patterson, but haven't in awhile. Right now I am reading The Litigators by John Grisham. I always enjoy his books some more than others, but this one is good.

I haven't read John Grisham in years...I have one called Ford County but haven't gotten to it yet. Who is your favorite author? I love Edward Rutherford, Ken Folett, Boris Akunin, james Patterson, Ann Rice, and well too many to list them all!

I have not read any Edward Rutherford. I will have to check him out. I have read several Ken Follett books. I love Pillars of the Earth and its sequel. I have read Ann Rice's Vampire series, very good. My favorite authors include Dick Frances, John Grisham, Mary Higgins Clark and Elizabeth Berg. I have read just about everything they have written.

I`m currently reading David du Hempsey`s debut novel - "The Marijuana Theory" and i find it great so far.
I enjoy both style of writting and facts in the book. As it is said on the back cover of the book: "...you start to wonder is it there something more about cannabis and how our world is run"

I am almost done with In The Bleak Midwinter: A Special Agent Constance Mandalay Novel by M. R. Sellars. Just came out and I am having all sorts of fun with it. It is a supernatural thriller that takes place at Christmas time. I think I will check into some of his other novels when I am done.

I have that book (EDIT: referring to Candle in the Dark)and almost picked it to read a few weeks ago. I ended up selecting Anna Karenina. I'm having a tough go of it so far (about 1/4 through) and care absolutely not at all for any of the characters. The only one I felt for was a horse who broke its leg and was shot to death. Still, I continue on...

Kevin - it gets better, hang in there! I always find reading books like that to be better if you can read an annotated version.

Right now I am reading Pale Demon by Kim Harrison (The Hollows book 9) and An Everlasting Meal. But mostly I am reading something I would dearly love to give up -- Evaluation in Organizations, 2nd edition. Grad school assigned reading, obviously. :roll:
