I have to say that my very favorites are Diana Gabaldon - love time travel and you can't get any better than Claire and Jamie - the Elm Creek Quilt series and there is another quilt series where the lead character works at a museum somewhere out west - I love Eric Flint's 1632 series - another time travel/alternative history - starts out with a 10 mile sq patch of WV being sent back in time to the 30 years wars in Germany - 20th Century vs. 1632 - very interesting - if interested go to www.Baen.com/library - the site has a bunch of their books free to download - one of my all time favorite series is a very old one - the Williamsburg Novels by Elswyth Thane - they were published during the 40's and 50's following one family from the Revolution to WWII -
