I enjoy mystery, suspense, chick lit, and more. The only genres I don't read are horror and romance. i'm kinda burnt out on reading all the same best selling authors!

1984 by George Orwell, I Capture the Castle by Dodie Smith, The Awakening by Kate Chopin, and Rebecca by Daphne DuMaurier. All are AMAZING books and aren't any of that Nicholas Sparks, Nora Roberts crap that you see filling up the shelves these days. Those kinds of books are like the fast food of novels. If you want something substantial, I highly recommend them!!

I spend most of the time by readin books...I read and read and read all days simply because I loved books so much...but I guess I can't still be called as a bookworm coz there are plenty to read and to learn....
I had many sets of books that include fiction and non-fiction but almost all english fiction....
I love all books from charles Dickens..ohhh he's a great author ....and I did read all series of Harry Potter...but my favourite one is The Tea House On Mulberry Street by Owen Wilson...
it's an IRish made book been published in 2004....
it's a lovely novel with beautiful descriptions and awesome story lines...
other books I love is Little Women, Mine,Multiple Choice(an American Novel),,,and a journel bout J.Kennedy,,,

Bones of the Moon by Jonathan Carroll sounds like it might be right up your alley! It's suspenseful with a chick lit sort of twist.

Twilight by Stephanie Meyer, but it has some romance or The Kite Runner because it is a great powerful book

OK, then, read some Alice Hoffman books. Practical Magic is very good and has little to do with the movie. I haven't read one yet that I didn't like.
My sister suggests Murder at the Ford (Margaret Truman)

Try Seven Deadly Wonders by Matthew Reilly. It just came out and it was awesome. Or anything else by Matthew Reilly or Jack duBrul or Clive Cussler or Ted Bell, etc.

Try books by Ruth rendell, barbara Vine, Ian Rankin, Michael Conelly and Wilbur Smith. I've read most of theirs and they're superb.
