Pretty much anything James Patterson has written or co-authored is great! I have all of his books and I could not put them down :) Anything with Alex Cross is great but it's best to start reading him from the beginning since each book tends to add to his story a bit more. Happy reading!!

Dan Brown's books have short chapters, are suspenseful and I personally think he's a much better writer than James Patterson, albeit a less prolific one. I used to like James Patterson but after having read most of them, I'm starting to find that (with the exception of the ones about the children with wings) they are a bit formulaic. Also, the characters, especially the villains, are a bit one-dimentional and without depth. Villains that are pure evil can be fun, but they're all the same -- I much prefer Stephen King's complex and realistic characters. No offense to James Patterson's fans, I still like James Patterson, just in small doses. ;-) As for romance, I can't help you much, not being much of a romance fan. I actually found a website that gives a list of authors who write novels with short chapters. You may find something you'd like there! See source link.

His latest book is AWESOME!
Maximum Ride by James Patterson:
Max, Fang, Iggy, Nudge, the Gasman, and Angel are kids who are pretty normal-except that they're 98% human, 2% bird. They grew up in cages, living like rats, and now they're free-but being chased by the wicked, wolf-like Erasers, who've kidnapped Angel. Led by Max, the "Flock" embarks on a quest to find Angel, infiltrate a secret facility to track down their parents, get revenge on an evil traitor, and try to save the world-if there's time.

my first James Patterson book wasn't part of any of his series. I read Cradle and All, it was about 2 teen pregnancies, both were claimed to have been "devine" (such as Mary's pregnancy with Jesus) however it's not overly religious. I read it all in about 9 hours, I couldn't put it down!!!!!

All his stuff is excellent. I would recommend The Jester if you havent read it already. If so, The Lake House or either of the Maximum Ride books are great. Alex Cross is also an excellent suggestion

Kiss the Girls!! I could not put it down.
This book has many times been noted as his best most grisly work. Read some reviews at the link below. However is does contain highly adult content and can be very graphic!

Anything in the Alex Cross series is good. I also just read the Lifeguard and it was really good and suspensful!
