I'd like to see some book recommendations here. You can recommend something you really like, or others can ask for recommendations.

What I like to read the most are mysteries/thrillers or fun chick lit type stuff. So, does anyone have a recommendation along those lines?

RL Stine. Night of the Living Dummy

Serpentine by Thomas Thompson, the best read for girls or guys.

The Three Musketeers, by Alexandre Dumas

Two Years Before the Mast, by Richard Henry Dana, Jr.,

Sherlock Holmes, A Study in Scarlet, Sir Arthur Conan Doyle

Alan Quatermain, King Solomon's Mines, H. Rider Haggard

If you're going to recommend something, could you give at least a little info about the book?

I assuming you've already read Jame Patterson's books? It's been a long time since I've read mysteries or thrillers so I don't know what's new. I am enjoying a series by Jim Butcher though that would qualify. It's got kind of a magic/sci fi twist.

American Gods by Neil Gaiman
Good Omens by Neil Gaiman and Terry Prachet
Patient Zero by Jonathon Mayberry


they may not be "chick books" or mystery novels (well, American Gods could sorta kinda be..) but they are all amazing books, and a great read!

American Psycho- Brett Easton Ellis
Naked Lunch- William Burroughs
On The Road-Jack Kerouak
Visions Of Cody- Jack Kerouak

Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance- Robert Pirsig

Any of the James Bond thrillers by Ian Fleming. be seeing you

Young lady thou ask too much. I am fascinated by titles and then by author. the mystery that lays between the pages is the fascinating part, it's the read. If I were to follow your thread and happen upon a story teller it would destroy that part for me. if they were to tell too much. And as I read what is written, I would lose that read, due to your thread. If you want info about the books you ask to be posted, be inquisitive and check them out for yourself, the satisfaction will come with unfurling the mystery.
Any mystery by Walter Mosley, Baudelaire (Flowers of Evil), James Swain is a terrific read, you will not put his books down

I have actually not read his books. I might at some point! I'll check out Jim Butcher. Thanks.

I find it's best to dive in with no expectations what-so-ever.

The Invisible Man- Ralph Ellison

I was asking for basic info. If that's too much, oh well.

Thanks for the suggestions so far.

Just be adventurous....Find what you think would appeal to you, or just chance it. Ya' got nothing to lose.

No that's absolutely not too much, where shall I begin..............................................................................................................................................................................................................................

brilliant book! can't believe i forgot that one!

The Pearl-John Steinbeck
Tropic of Cancer/Tropic of Capricorn-Henry Miller
Catcher In The Rye- J.D. Salinger
