    You can't go wrong with Martina Cole IMO (even guys will enjoy her books) Hubby has just read DaVinci Code and says its brill.

    Anything by Iain Banks is absolutely fab. And if you like science fiction, his Iain M. Banks stuff is just as good.

    I use to be such a big fan for Martina Cole but lately her books seem to be abit of a let down. Might have to move on to Mandasue Heller's Books....

    I have just finished reading ' A boy called IT' and ' The Lost Boy ' written by Dave Pelzer. Remarkably sad, I found that it was a easy read and I really could'nt put it down - read both books in 1 and half days. A true story and a number one best seller.

    I would recomend this book as its not a chunky book and also as I said before easy to read and non stop reading.

    the harry potter series (the earlier books aren't anywhere near as good as the later ones - stick with them)

    or the Dan Brown books - Angels & Demons being the daddy! (yes, even better than DaVinci code!)

    Angels & Demons, then the DaVinci Code. Now reading Deception Point... all Dan Brown, all very good.

    Very good book , I must read that again sometime . Don't think the follow up 'Tandia' is as good , at least it doesn't stick in my mind as much
    Same old same old since 2008

  • any of the Dan Brown's are good - Da Vinci the best. Just read shadow of the wind, that is quite good. Any Rebus book by Ian Rankin is a winner. the 1st one is Knots and Crosses - if you like that there are 14 more finishing with Fleshmarket Close. Very very Good
