Sleeping Giants by Sylvain Neuvel
Read it! Good book.
Have you read Station Eleven?
@Howard no I haven’t. Is it sci fi too?
Sci-fi/post apocalyptic
Maybe I’ll read it. Thx!!
It’s got great reviews on amazon and Goodreads The Captive Born https://www.amazon.com/dp/B079KY2Z1F/ref=cm_sw_r_sms_c_api_UUj3AbXME2ZR6
Like ABBA said, “Take a chance on me”: http://jaymims.com/
I write lighthearted mysteries centered on a private eye and his ragtag band of friends.
Cabinets of Curiosity .. By Preston & Child… <3
Read that one. I love that series. The Relic sealed the deal on their books. I’ve read almost all of them
The Thirteenth Tale, Wonderstruck, The Hunger Games
The Great Alone by Kristin Hannah.
Virals by Kathy Reich’s
Love her
Hearts in Atlantis, Stephen King
Stacy it all depends on what your preference is in reading material. In the last few months I’ve read some really enjoyable books. Jodi Piccoult’s ‘Small great things’ had me crying after the first 10 pages and taught me some things about myself. If you like Scandi Noir then I enjoyed Asa Larssen’s ‘The 2nd deadly sin’ so much that went and backordered ALL her books. Another Author I could highly recommend is Liz Nugent. Just got her 3rd released book. Loved her last two. Gripping. Celeste Ng’s ‘Little Fires Everywhere’ also a good read. Another Author I love (if you like to mix a bit of supernatural with a Thriller) is John Connolly beginning with ‘Every Dead Thing’. I’ve got every single book he wrote. Good luck.
I’ve started Little Fires Everywhere. Thank you!
Anything by James Rollins!
Anything by Ann Rule, if you like true crime.
I have over 700 books downloaded I just didn’t know which one to read. Thanks for the input my reading buddies!!!
try liz nugent
Just started her latest Skin Deep. She hooks you right away.
The Day After Tomorrow
The Red Tent, The Stand, The Passage, From Sand and Ash, The Kite Runner, Shadow of the Wind. All excellent books.
I recently finished the Millennium Trilogy by Stieg Larsson. It’s starts with The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo. I really enjoyed them.
Thought the first one was the strongest though I enjoyed all 3.
I would agree with that, but it sucked me in enough to want to keep going…and the the second one was such a cliffhanger I HAD to find out the conclusion. I’m interested to read his son’s continuations, but I’ve heard the tone is totally different (I don’t usually let reviews influence me, though). ?
Any book by James Hadley Chase, Alistaire MacLean, Ludlum, Le Carre’
Sometimes I Lie, or You
The Trouble with Goats and Sheep(Joanna Cannon), Wool(Hugh Howey), Paper: Paging Through History(Mark Kurlansky)
Rise of the iliri by Auryn Hadley
The first book in the black dagger brotherhood series by J.R. ward
Dark Matter by Blake Crouch
a little life is intense and haunting but it is a 900 page read and takes a bit to get into but well worth it.
“The Widow” and “The Child” both by Fiona Barton are good reads with twists at the end.
I fucking love all of this!!!
The Shadow Place by Jesse Allen
Anything by Karin Slaughter
Angels and Demons. DaVinci Code was slow developing. This one will give you whiplash if you’re not careful.
If you havent read anything by Kristen Ashley your missing out….
The Hearts Invisible Furies by John Boyn this is the first sentence. I loved this book. It was exciting, funny, sad, thought-provoking and I was sad when it ended.
This first sentence shocked me and made me interested as to what the heck was going on. There are many shocking momonets
I agree….. I loved this book and recommend it to everyone
@Mandy have you read The lost child of Philomena Lee? Excellent read and fires the blood!
@Anne no I haven’t but if it’s anything like this one I will definitely try it. Once I finished THIF, I had a few library books come in at the same time that I had been waiting months for. Sadly quite a few are disappointing. When I’m finished I want to find another page-turner. I will check out your recommendation.
@Anne oh I did see this movie. It’s amazing people did this kind of crap and could be so cruel.
@Mandy book is nearly always better. The Help was the best film adaption I’ve ever seen to the actual book.
@Anne yes I agree! Funny you mention The Help bc I’m listening to it on audio right now. My first audiobook. There are different readers for each character and have southern accents. I love it. I watched the movie years ago and thought it was very good
Magnus Blackwell and then the next two.
Thank you!
Eye of the Dragon by Stephen King
Century of the Surgeon, Bar Sinister, Harbin’s Ridge, Titus Andronicus, Major Barbara, Ghosts…can’t name them all, but they are immediate attention grabbers
Anything by Ruth Ware, Paula Hawkins, Chevy Stevens or Dan Brown.
I think Ruth Ware wrote ‘In a dark dark wood’. If I’m right, I loved it.
