Re: Favourite Authors

Hi book lovers! I love reading too but I'm not a night owl - as I work full time and up at 6.30 every morning,I save my reading for bed but I'm a bath at 9 girl and in bed by 9.30, hoping to get an hour to hour and a half to read before dropping off! Otherwise it's holidays.
I really enjoy reading books by Anne Tyler, Margaret Atwood, Anita Shreve (most of them), Rosie Thomas (try 'Iris and Ruby'- a lovely, well written novel), Jodie Picoult (easy reading but, often a surprising twist at the end)- to name but a few.
John Grisham, Patricia Cornwell, Lionel Shriver and (when looking for something more gruesome)James Patterson can also 'float my boat'!
'The Kite Runner' by Khaled Hosseini was a wonderful recent read, also 'The Time Traveller's Wife' by Audrey Niffeneger - you either love or hate it.
Presently reading the Book Club choice - ' Half of a Yellow Sun' and looking forward to starting the Memory Keeper's Daughter by Kim Edwards.
Happy Reading - I'll think about you as I nod off tonight.
