I have to finish reading a few books for english for school, but I was looking for some interesting books to look forward to reading after that?
I'm interested in drama, romance, mystery...pretty much anything.
I think next on my list might be the Twilight series?

I love Dean Koontz and Stephen King. Any and everything by them is good. Especially the Tower series by King. A also like Robert Ludlum....he is the write of the Bourne series that Matt Damon made famous.

OMG! You HAVE TO READ THE TWILIGHT SERIES!!! It is a suspence, drama, romance... sort of a mystery depends on how you look at it... You will fall in love with the characters, as they fall in love themselfs, the story is like no other book you have ever read... The first in the series is Twilight, probably the best...

Try something by Rett MacPherson..genre=Cozy Mystery
"In Sheep's Clothing" for example
Annie Proulx......"The Shipping News" or "That old Ace in the Hole"
Or Carl Hiaasen, "Sick Puppy", "Stormy Weather", "Double Whammy".............Funny books, they'll make you laugh
Plum Island by Nelson Demille is great as well as many others by him, "Night Fall", "The General's Daughter", The Charm School"
Hogan's "Thrice Upon a Time" for SciFi
Lee Smolin's "The Trouble with Physics" "Real" science
McNally Series by Lawrence Sanders, also his "The Tomorrow File" is great
"Sweet Thursday" by John Steinbeck
"Peter Carmizind" or "Siddhartha" by Herman Hesse
"Cat's Cradle" by Kurt Vonnegut Jr many others also
That should be enough for a couple weeks

Atlas Shrugged by Ayn Rand. The only book that has sold more copies is the Bible and although it was written some 20 years ago it is still on the shelf at bookstores because of the demand for it. It is a little hard to read in some places but I have yet to meet a person who read it once who hasn't read it again and again - 7 times for me - because there is something more in it to understand each time

Besides the Twilight series, (great books), I recommend "The Book Thief" & "I Am The Messenger" by Markus Zusak. The Book Thief is the best out of the two.

Definitely Twilight series, I would try reading the Private series by Kate Brian. It has a little bit of everything you're asking for

My favorite book of all time is 1984 by George Orwell. It's dramatic and it has some romance too.
My other favorite's are Fahrenheit 451 by Ray Bradbury and The Color Purple by Alice Walker.

Twilight is a wonderful series. One of my favorite authors is Dan Brown. You will love the thrillers that he writes.
Here is a site where you can find great books. They have book review and the pictures of the cover. Have fun!!~

I just finished reading 'The Thief' by Megan Whalen Turner, and immediately had to go buy the next two books in the series: 'Queen of Attolia' and 'King of Attolia'. I'm looking forward to more books in this series.

I love to read and read every and anything. "The Park" ISBN: 1413797504 is a pretty good read for this time of year. Went out to Germany first and retranslated back to English. A few retranslation issues but a cool story. It got very good reviews on the Barnes and Nobles website.
