Definitely Purple Hibiscus.
Loved that book

oops, i'd forgotten there was another book which fit that criteria.

the one i meant was Yellow Yellow by kaine agary.

but purple hibiscus also matches, so i guess its both.

Hehe. I had a feeling this would happen cuz Purple hibiscus is a flower and not just a colour. That's why I kept mum

what are u feeling like?

Abeg stop ur pleasantries and ask kweshun joor.

Ok here's another one:
Name the AUTHOR and the BOOK.

- the book centers (more or less) around a young female writer and her former lecturer.

- if turned on its head and summarily summarized, the book is just about a f**king flying saucer.

- the author is American, and is prolly more popular than his own books sef. Oh, and my favorite clue: he's been mentioned here already.

Cant give the genre; its a give-away.

Gotta be Sidney Sheldon. Doomsday Conspiracy. Funny I haven't read the book but a friend told me about it. 'Sides, all his main characters are female. . . . . the shithead

uj_sizzle: Abeg stop ur pleasantries and ask kweshun joor.

I love you too

1. Author is female
2. Started the religion- objectivism
3.Protagonist of her novel and embodiment of what human beings should aspire to (according to her): Howard Roarke

vescucci:

I love you too

and I you

^^What's with all these lovey-dovey higgledy piggledy drama?? Very funny.
By the way, V, u're wrong! Yeah, that ought to burst your lovey-dovey baloon. Teeheehee!
I havent read Doomsdat Conspiracy though...u sure the main character's a female writer too?

I'm tempted to mentioned the genre, but it'll become too easy after that - the writer's name is synonymous with it... Now even that is a give-away.

Answer is The Fountainhead by Ayn Rand... Thank you, Google!! Oh lovely internet, where would i be without you?

I know little things about some books that I haven't read. Like to the last question, I'd have answered Atlas Shrugged by the same author. *shrugs*. If not for the flying saucer, I would have answered The Pelican Brief by John Grisham. But I don't remember any fucking flying saucer.

@uj_sizzle. Let's get a sizzling room, shall we? Before Kay9 will immolate himself out of envious protest.

Is this what u guys do here now?

@Vescucci
doomsday conspiracy is actually one of the few Sheldon where protagonist is male. From the clues, i knew i know who the author but couldnt think far cos i'm still recuperating .
lemme drop this simple one before y'all derail again
-author is british male
-kighted by Brithsh royalty
-one of his most famous books was named after Biblical characters.

clue 2&3 pretty much gave it away (to those who sabi authors o).

So no one guessed my riddle then? Can't say i blame you guys, what with uj and Vesc spreading pheromones everywhere and discombobulating everyone...

^^ Anyhow, the author is Stephen King, and the book is THE TOMMYKNOCKERS. Few horror fiction fans here, i guess.

Last night and the night before,
Tommyknockers, tommyknockers, knocking at the door.
I want to go out, dont know if i can
'Cos i,m so afraid of the tommyknocker man.

My favourite line in the book is
"Its the Super biatch: faster than a speeding hate mail, able to leap over cringing family members in a single bound."

It has been years since I read The Tommyknockers but this particular line has stuck to my brain like superglue

I didn't read the book. I think I've outgrown Sheldon but I might just read it. How do you feel now? Pele. Get well soon so I don't have to be nice to you.
As for your riddle, I think it's Jeffrey Archer's Kane and Abel. I know he is/was into politics but I dunno if he was knighted.

Lol. Some people will burst a gut here. Let's have mercy.

Lol at pheromones. You know the thing about pheromones? You can only pick them up when you have a sense organ for picking them up. Stephen King has written like a billion books. This one has not even intrigued me. Maybe I might think about trying to attempt to read it now. . . . . if I feel like it.

Lol. You hear bibble peren, Conan turn to Canon.
