Two authors I love
Books are the love of my life. Here my husband will grumble a little but he knows how much books mean to me. So today I thought I would spend some time to give reading suggestions. I went to my book shelf to have a look and pondered what to tell people to read. I realised that I got a wide mix of books in it, but two authors do take up quite a bit of space in my book shelf.
Dean Koontz
I am still on a mission to get all his books, but he has written damn much over the years. "What does he write?" do you ask. Well, he mixes genres alot, its thriller, romance, horror and part science fiction. Looking at books like "Winter Moon", "Phantoms" and "Whispers" are really creepy while books such as "Life Expectancy" and the "Odd Thomas"-series are less on the creepy side and more on the thriller side. There are so many books I can go through them all but this is an author I do encourage people to read. (Hey, even Stephen King calls Koonz the best suspense author of our time.)
J K Rowling
Harry Potter. Of course. It took me a long time to actually read the first Harry Potter book but once I did I was hooked. I have read them, and re-read them. And listened to the audio books several times (English version, not silly american version) and of course watched all the movies. It is magic, what's not to like? I do not really see them as kids books either, because some of them are really dark and people usually don't die as much in kids books.
In time I will suggest more authors, more books but this is it for today. If you don't like books.. just move along. I will not take discussions about the books I love. I am way too protective of them. Silly but true!
Over and out

I don't think I've read anything by Koontz, but then again horror wouldn't do me any good. But Harry Potter I've read and re-read. And listened to... =)
