Default Re: Anyone read any good books lately? No Country for Old Men.

Thank you for starting this subject! I've read everything by Jeffery Deaver (The Bone Collector). He's brilliant & defines the category of "thriller". On the other hand, I've read everything by Maeve Binchy & Mitch Albom . NOW, I'm reading, "Jude The Obscure", by Thomas Hardy. I also love Dickens. I was enthralled by "The Kite Runner" by Khaled Hosseini, & I plan to read his, "A Thousand Splendid Suns". Ken Follett's new one, "World Without End" is on my "must read" list. His "The Eye of the Needle" scared the bejeebers out of me in print, AND on film. I, too, tend to read a couple of books at the same time.

I hope that more people will contribute to this forum on this subject. I think we have a lot of readers here in The Villages, & some of my most enjoyable reading experiences have come from references.
