I like murder mysteries, especially "cozy" mysteries.
A couple of my favorites are Donna Andrews (hilarious) and Joan Hess (also pretty darn funny). Look for Murder with Peacocks by Donna Andrews and any of the Maggody series by Joan Hess.

I would recomend The Hobbit, The Return of The King and The Devil's armour.

Second that. Anything by Hemingway really, but The Sun Also Rises is great. Fan of J.G. Ballard, especially Crash. Roberto Bolano wrote some amazing stuff in his short time with us, Savage Detective is good, still working through 2666. The Painted Bird by Jerzy Kosinski. Anything by Vonnegut, anything at all. Confederacy of Dunces, What is the What... plenty more, I'll have to come back to this. Lots of good nonfiction out there too but most of what I read there is food and photography related.

If you're into fantasy at all, then I recommend checking out Dragonlance. It's a -huge- collection of books. Start with the chronicles trilogy: Dragons of Autumn Twilight, Dragons of Winter Night and Dragons of Spring Dawning, by Margaret Weis and Tracy Hickman.
This is (arguably) the best starting point to get into the world of Krynn. For more info, see here. I'm a few trilogies into the saga (finished 23 books, on my 24th now), so far all of them are great. |
