I’ve decided I’m a very big Character reader. Yes, plot is always important but the authors I consider keepers and autobuys are allabtout eh charcter. Liek Julie Collins in Lori Armstrongs series. Serious tough girl with issues, and I love her. Jack Reacher. A ture hero who is searchign fro his ownplace inthe workd (Plus I love that some of the Jack Reacher books are in first person and some are in third, depending on the story. That appeals to me because I write both, and It’s good to knwo i’m not crazy when I feel that some just Have to be told a certain way.) Mercy Thomspon, Stephanie Plum, and Sookie Stackhouse. It’s all about the character, if we care abotu them, then the story is worthwhile even if it’s not the most unique or intricate.

If you enjoy Jack Reacher, you really should check out Lori Armstrong’ Julie Collins Series. the first book si BLOOD TIES (and no, it’s not paranormal.)

Sasha, I’ve recently started reading Lee Child. Must say that I’m enjoying the writing too.

I like a lot of the ones you mentioned, but Also love Janet Evanovich’s Stepahnie Plum, and I adore Susan E Philllips for traditional contemporary romances. I’m a big Lee Child fan as well (love me some Jack Reacher) and Lori Armstrong’s Julie Collins PI series.

Charli, PG Wodehouse is fantastic. Brilliantly witty, while pointing out the obsurdity of the times. Much like Terry Pratchett.

Bernard, I know most people are clinging to way too much crap. I just can’t believe that I’ve let it get this bad. I really do hope this move helps clear a lot of stuff out. Sigh. As for Koontz, I think that’s why I enjoy his work so much. You can actually root for people and in all likelihood they will survive until the end of the book. He ends with hope.
