I was just wondering if there are any books that are extremely interesting and fairly easy to read, I can read the challenging ones and ones with underlying messages, they aren't as fun, but I still enjoy a good message that isn't easy to find. I also love Stephen King and any kind of horror or mystery or suspense. Like I said, I'm a very diverse reader, I just would love something specific to go look for at Half-Price Books. :D so if you have any great suggestions any great reads as of lately please feel free to get free points and let me know. :D Thanks so much! <3

Also if you can guess what novel this line comes from I'll reward you 10 points, BUT you still have to list at least one good novel. Deal? Okay here it is...

If you like horror and suspense, read anything by Dean Koontz, but especially Intensity. It is a very fast read, you wont be able to put it down! Also, "Angela's Ashes" by Frank McCourt, "The Vampire Chronicles" series by Anne Rice, " Harry Potter" series by J.K. Rowling, any of the old Nancy Drew/ Hardy Boys Mysteries, and anything by Agatha Christie. Those are all pretty easy, yet fun to read. Happy hunting!

M*A*S*H by Richard Hooker
The World According to Garp by John Irving
Guilty Pleasures by Laurel K. Hamilton (first of anita blake series)
Ball Four by Jim Bouton
One Flew Over The Cuckoo's Nest by Ken Kesey
Lonesome Dove by Larry McMurty
That should keep you busy!
Lonesome Dove won a Pulitzer prize.
Garp, MASH and Nest all won some academy awards for the movie versions.
Ball Four is considered one of the best baseball books ever.
And the Anita Blake series is a about blood, sex and magic -- meaning vampires, detectives, werewolves and zombies!
Have fun!

Try the Pendragon series by DJ MacHale also the Wizard series by Daine Duane...both are in the young adult section in Borders. But don't let that stop you...they are excellent books! Also try any of the books by Steve Barry, David Baldacci, and Anne Rice of course! Enjoy!
