Read a lot and tho I lean toward history fiction and mysteries the rule is 'good story-good characters'. Every day the top 10 changes but heres mine: Books 1 Ghostwalk by Rebecca Stott - (complex & chilling) 2. The Hook by Donald Westlake (very funny satire+mystery on book publishing) 3. Lady Vernon and Her Daughter by Jane Rubino and Caitlin Rubino Bradway (great) 4. Lie Down with Lions by Ken Follett (Drs w/o borders & the Russian/Afghanistan war -page turner) 5. Northanger Abbey by Jane Austen - (w/teen heroine fixated on gothic novels a winner w/the right writer) 6. Patriots in Disguise by Richard Hall (tales of women who fought Civil War disguised as men) Miniseries or TV series 1. Carrie Bebris - The Mr & Mrs Darcy mysteries 2. Nora DeLoach - The 'Mama' mysteries (why hasnt Tyler Perry latched on to these) 3. Katy Munger - The Casey Jones mysteries - LOL funny 4. Jane Rubino - The Cat Austen mysteries - if you like Janet Evanovich a good pick Agree on ‘Prey’ and would also like to see ‘State of Fear’ or ‘Airframe’.
