I mostly read Christian Fiction. There are many excellent authors. I happen to have just finished a very good book called "Wild Horses" by Linda Byler and I am reading "the Mercy" now by Beverly Lewis. These two happen to be set in Amish settings. Other authors I like are Karen Kingsbury, Colleen Coble and Linda Nichols, plus many others. I tend to like adventure stories, and mysteries even if they have some type of love story woven in. I don't care quite as much for straight love stories.

Jennifer Chiaverini's series is the best. I just found Monica Ferris who writes about a handwork shop. I liked book one.
|
If you like mysteries/adventure, read Steig Larson, The Girl Who, series. They are a great read.

I've just discovered the Inspector Rutledge mysteries by Charles Todd (really a mother and son are the authors). I picked up one and loved it so much that I tracked down all the books online. Very well written.

Like the books from Tracie Peterson, have read six of them so far and now on nr. seven. They are not quilting related and historycal fiction.

I like the cozy mysteries and have many authors and series that I have read. Here are a few.
Kate Collins - Flower shop mystery series Cleo Coyle - Coffeehouse series Joanne Fluke - Cookie Jar series - a favorite Carolyn Haines - all her books have "bones" in the name Nancy Atherton - Aunt Dimity series (Aunt Dimity is a ghost) You need to get the first one to find out who she is. She's not a scary ghost. Cynthia Baxter - Cats & Dogs series - She's a vet. Rita Mae Brown - Mrs. Murphy series I go to Amazon.com and by used books. You can read "first pages" of them. It also leads to more books like these. I also have a Kindle and need to get more on it. I like to go to the book sales at the library to get used books. Reading at night is my sleeping pill. |
I've been reading Richard Paul Evans books So many make me cry!!!!I had to break away from mystery and tired of romance!!!

I am reading the Christmas Wedding by James Patterson...really enjoying it.
