Anybody read a GREAT book? Fiction.

[bif]

Not just a good book, but one you couldn't put down? Last one I read like that was ""Shadow of the Wind" by Zafon. Total page turner.

1. The Lovely Bones, Alice Sebold

I am more of a suspense fiction reader normally
(King, Kellerman, Cook, Saul..)

8. Really the last great fiction book I read was

The Corrections by Jonathan Franzen. That was about a year ago. I read constantly but that was the last one worth mentioning.

7. The last fiction book I read was Stephen Kings Desperation.

I was 15 at the time so that was back in, 1997 or something... I read a lot though, just not fiction... Sad, I know.. Anyways, I really enjoyed that book at the time. It was huge too(well small compared to some of the books I read now). I was really proud of myself for reading it all the way through.

9. These two are great.

Snowfall by Mitchell Smith

This is the first book of a trilogy. The others are so-so, but Snowfall is a keeper.

Another of my all time favorite, can't put down novels is Time and Again by Jack Finney. I always feel a little envious of anyone who's reading it for the first time.
