I am a patricia cornwell fan. do u like pathology and all the forensic medical stuff, the u just met ur lady. she dissects the whole thing and u are forced to wonder, is it really this cool.
danielle stee is also teh lady,
john grisham and his lawyer jargon, the list is endless.
hey i almost forgot i also like wong,her pediatrics book is hella gud, lol

Okay
I love reading novels also. Like:

Dan Brown - The Da Vinci Code, Digital Fortress (that was especially good for us computer-cum-novel freaks), Angels and Demons. These books are hot from the beginning to the end. I decided to try Deception Point, but it was too boring. Dan Brown, what happened there?

J K Rowling (though I guess that's not what we're talking about here)

John Grisham has god a really good reputation also. I tried reading Street Lawyer, but it couldn't keep me goiong.

Recently, I read an novel by Elizabeth George, titled "Well Schooled in Murder" and I tell you, the book is a killer. I don't know why she isn't popular yet. Read it if you can.

Also, contrary to popular belief, I think Danielle Steel is BORING!!!

Tayo

@bignsirim, yeah i ave read Kane and Abel.Thats one of the best novels i ave read, There where two versions of that story,i first read the story based on abel and kanes children(i cant remember their the name) but william kanes son died in that one.

Steven King
Frank Perreti
Syndey Sheldon
Wole Soyinka

Sidney sheldon

At last someone mentions Judith Krantz

Amy Tan. She wrote The Joy Luck Club, The Bonesetter's Daughter and some others.
Her books are really good. She explore's the mother-daughter relationship quite a bit.
Give her a try sometime.

Fredrick Forsythe

Robert Ludlum

Still can't come to pick up the recent authors, i'm hooked on the old generation.

@nkechy,
Sorry, but I don't think you'll actually find people who read Nigerian authors here. Except the REALLY REALLY REALLY REALLY good ones, and I'm yet to come across someone like that.

Frank Peretti
LEFT BEHIND series
Perry Mason series
Lawrence Sanders
John Grisham
Robert Ludlum
Virginia C. Andrews
Danielle Steele
Dean Koontz
Jeffrey Archer
David Baldacci
Sidney Sheldon
Patricia Cornwall

, it's a long, long list!


i read lots of nigerian/African books in my early teens. can't remember most of the authors but i know i really enjoyed reading them. some of those that stand out are:

Dizzy Angel
Cry Beloved Country
Forest of a Thousand Demons
Evbu my Love

I've read quite a number of books, but my all time favourite is Francine rivers REDEEMING LOVE
it is a wonderful book. I also like john grisham's "street lawyer"
I've also read a lot of Frank Peretti's books.
Then i really like Ngozi Adichie's Half of a yellow Sun
and Ben Okri's Famished Road.

Francine Rivers ( the best) She wrote Scarlet thread, Redeeming love ( already mentioned), Leota's garden etc;
Tess Gerritsen ; Gravity ( wonderful book), the Surgeon, Body double
Chimaamanda Ngozi Adichie , she's Nigerian and she's good
Pat Conroy, Prince of tides

Just a few of the authors I enjoy.

@GL
Left behind series are popular in my school. But I've not found the courage to read them.
@adaobee
A friend game me Street Lawyer, but after some time I got bored. John Grisham doesn't keep you going the way Dan Brown does.
@prof ade
I think Purple Hibiscus is by Chimaamanda Ngozi Adichie (am I right?). I started it, but, due to circumstances beyond my control (school library stuff) I couldn't finish it.

@nkechy,
Sorry, but I don't think you'll actually find people who read Nigerian authors here. Except the REALLY REALLY REALLY REALLY good ones, and I'm yet to come across someone like that.

hey try readin "orita meta" for a change like i said ull thank me,some day ull write a book too n want folks to read except u dont go by ur real name though

My best authors are
SYDNEY SHELDON-Doomsday Conspiracy,Nothing Lasts Forever e.t.c
JOHANAH LINDSAY-Secret Fire e.t.c can't remember the rest
REBECCA YORK- Laccister's Law.God! i luv that book
DANIELLE STELL-Promise
SANDRA BROWN-
JOHN GRISHAM-
I can't remember some of the authors bit i've read books like 'Three Miracle Babies,Straight Game,Vengance in Death,Sanctuary,Vengance in the grave,Storybook Bride,Act of will,Savage Hunger,Amber Beach e.t.c.

I tell you, it depends on how the Nigerian literature scene is at that time. If it's really good, I'll stay in Nigeria and publish as Tayo Ajiboye. Else, I'll get out of the country and use a pseudonym.

GOWER AND DAVIES' PRINCIPLES OF MODERN COMPANY LAW .

It is a good book but it is full of typographical erors.It is probably the best book since the publishing of the Holy Quaran

I think we're talking about novels here.

Unless, of course, I'm mistaken . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

Hello everyone!
I'm a fan of  Dean Koontz. He writes wonderfully well. I recommend Phantoms and Whispers to everyone. If you read Dean Koontz, please let indicate.

@ajiboyet

it says books not novels

That means i'm mistaken.

Eze Goes To School is such a thriller. Has any one read it?

Just finished reading Wuthering Heights by Emily Bronte, it's a great book.

@ Eeyore,

i remember Eze goes to school.

Patricia Cornwell-yeah, especially the Kate Scarpetta series

Walker Percy
Love in the Ruins
The Moviegoer
Lancelot

I love ready novels,

Jus finished 'The Broker' by John Grisham, i've read a number of his books cause i love law related topics.

Jeffery A. is another great writer, my favourite of his works is 'Kane and Abel'.
Used to be hung up on Danielle Steele.

Then i also enjoying books by: Francine Rivers, 'atonement child', 'the last sin eater', Frank Peretti, 'the Oath', 'this present darkness', 'Piercing the darkness', A. W. Tozer, Elizabeth George.
