I was just curious, i have read a fair few books and wanted to know if anyone had any they would like to share with me? I need something new to pick up and read please...?

I have just finished a George Orwell and i love Douglas Adams and Juliet marillier so if anyone knows of any Authors like them, i am into sci-fi, political, fantasy, war etc.. could you share?

OH anything but a love story please, i really dislike romance (no offense to anyone).
Mr objective - Thanks your are so articulate and enlightening.

I have read stephen kings pet cemetary, it scared the hell outta me ha ha :P

Thanks for all the answers so far!
 
Anything by Stephen King, James Herbert, David Ambrose.

Memory of demons
Misery
The fog
The Dark

Look into them :-)
 
I love Leslie Thomas. I read for escapism, and his books provide just that. They are fast, they are fun, they are exciting, they are hillarious, they are smutty, they are erotic and they are adventurous.
 
BEVERLY CLEARY JUST BECAUSE IT BRINGS ME BACK MEMORIES FROM WHEN I WAS LILL AND NOW MI KIDS HAVE READ HER BOOKS AND THEY SEEM TO LIKE THEM TOO
 
The ones I really love are classic "horrors" like:

Phantom of the opera
Dracula
Hunchback of Notre Dame
Interview with a vampire
Frankenstein
etc

So I'll say my favourite author is Gaston Leroux. If you liked Orwell you'd probably like "A clockwork Orange" but might have already read it...
 
The last book I couldn't put down was Cell by Stephen King. Watch it before the film is made and released later this year (if all goes to plan).
 
Eion Colfer.

His stories are the type that you can't put the book down until you can finish the whole thing, especially Artemis Fowl. I have read ALL of them and everyone went by very fast and put a smile on my face.
