I really love to read...Some of my favorites are Nicholas Sparks, Harry Potter, and occasionally Sarah Dessen. I've read all of the books which those authors have published now I need some new authors to follow, please! If you could, will you name the author and maybe some good books of him/her. Then is it possible to tell what those books are kind of about (Romance, Horror, Mystery, Fiction, etc.)

I value anyone's opinion...

Thanks!
 
Lincoln Child -- Suspence, a bit of mystery and a bit of love, and betrayal, possible, but fiction. Very entriguing. Good books are Eutopia, and Deep Storm.

Call of the wild is a really good book, it is a transformation, and discovery type story, based in the Yukon. By Jack London.
 
frank perretti is one of THE best authors i've ever read.. some of his titles include:
Piercing the Darkness
This Present Darkness
Hangman's Curse
Nightmare Academy
Monster
---Yes they sound strange, but they'r not weird like they sound.. lol they'r weird in a suspenseful, awesome, keeps u hooked kind of way..
The best book by him is called House.. I've read it like 4 times.. It's amazing!! It'll also be made into a movie sometime soon, it's a work in progress..

Another author you should rly follow is Melody Carlson-- she has two different series that i absolutely love
Diary of a Teenage Girl series
True Color series
Both are obviously teen/YA but they'r all amazing!!

Other authors u can follow are:
janette oke---kind of westerny romance, very good
ann brashares--- teen romance, fun, friendship, comedy
Stephenie Meyer--- twilight series and the host {{some of my all-time favs}}

Good Luck and Happy Reading, Hope this helped!!!!
 
Well an author i would really recommend getting into is Tami Hoag. I love her books, she is VERY good. She writes suspense novels and i love them to death! there are tons of books you can choose from, im currently on one of her newer books "THE ALIBI MAN", but anyways... TAMI HOAG... you'll love her!
 
I love Meg Cabot (Heather Wells & Queen of Babble) and Sophie Kinsella's (Shopaholic [soon to be movie] & Remember Me) Emily Giffin (Something Borrowed & Something Blue, Baby Proof) books. I am in the process of reading Jennifer Weiner's (Good In Bed & Certain Girls) books. They are all great authors!

If you want more info or the authors website's email me.
