Re:Does anyone know a good book????
Hi there. I love reading books by Kathy Reichs, and always introduce them to friends. If you enjoy thriller, try one of her books. Start with Dead du jour, it gives you more background info on Dr. Tempe Brennan, the leading character in her stories. If you've tried, tell me whether you like them. ta!

Re:Does anyone know a good book????
Hey there!
I would recommend the books of Jostein Gaarder (author of the best-selling book - Sophie's World). My personal favorite is the Solitaire Mystery. His books have a touch of his philosophy.
There's another book written by Vikas Swarup entitled "Q&A". This is a story of a boy who was taken and imprisoned because the producer of a quiz show can't believe his luck when that boy won a billion rupees. Now, he tells his stories -- his life stories --- and how his life experiences made him a winner of the show!
And also the book of Ha Jin entitled "Waiting". This is a story of a guy who waited 18 years to divorce his wife so he can marry another woman. This is a different love story.

Re:Re:Does anyone know a good book????
i also like Kathy Reichs´ books . But if you really like thriller
you have to read Patricia Conwell , Henning Mankell´s "midsummermurder" ( or so the german title is " Mitsommermord )was my first thriller and if you like to read something about a detective who is ... how should i explain it ... different , then you should read Henning Mankell`s Kurt Wallander books !

Re:Does anyone know a good book????
I can think of alot of good books. If you like vampires, then, maybe you enjoy fantasy novels. Philip Pullman's Dark Materials Trilogy is really good. As for mysteries, I like Sue Grafton and Anne Perry.

Re:Does anyone know a good book????
If you like vampires I recommend the "Dark-hunter" series by Sherrilyn Kenyon, the "Dark" series by Christine Feehan or the "Darkyn" series by Lynn Veihl. For mysteries I prefer the lighter comedie style of Janet Evanovich's "Plum" novels. If you like more of a time travel romance I have really ejoyed the "highlander" books by Karen Marie Moning. She is also doing a fever series consisting of Dark Fever and Blood Fever so far however I would recommend reading the highlander books first since there are tie-ins.

Re:Does anyone know a good book????
Well, I don't know if mystery=horror, but maybe you should try Stephen King's "It", which is a good horror book I really like, and also has a lot of mystery in it. Other horror/mystery books I know are the classics, of course: Frankenstein, by Mary Shelley, and The Invisible Man and The Island of Dr. Moreau, by H.G. Wells. I'm currently reading The Island of Dr. Moreau, so I still don't know if it's that good, but yeah, it's really mysterious. Ow!Another good mystery, but of a different kind, is Vladimir Nabokov's "Lolita", a book I really really liked, but is also kind of hard to read beacause of it's plot.

Re:Does anyone know a good book????
Yeah!! I know a really good book which is about vampires. It is called 'Twilight' and the author is Stephenie Meyer. There are sequels but I haven't read it yet, so I can't say, if they are good or not.
