I want stories that do not try and complicate things, that try (and fail) to intrique me. I want books that have sole purpose to entertaine me. Books that excite me, amaze me, scare me..... books like Stephen King's.
I want thrills and chills, not the opposit.

I want well written books with appealing characters and a good plot. I would also like the book to teach me just a little something. For example, Patricia Cornwell's books teach you just a little bit about forensic science. I don't want a textbook, just a fact or two. Something about history or another culture is fine, too.
I spent nine years in college getting three degrees. I have no desire to return to school, but I still like to learn things.

I love fiction, sci fic, a bit of horror, magic, adventure, mystery and thrill. In short, books like The Inheritence Triology and The Harry Potter series etc.

more books like Agatha Christie's "and then there were none"it was so baffling at first ,until the very end.it looked like the murderer had got away with it,until you read the very end of the book.
