My Best has  to be "Leon Uris: EXODUS". 1987.
I read a lot of James Hadley Chase in my time: Miss 'something' wave a wand, The Dead stay Dumb, Can of Worms, Sucker Punch, Believe this, Believe Anything, (read all the Hadley Chase series in secondary school). l guess "Chase" taught me most of the bad things l knew in life, growing-up Grin

Others are the "Robert Ludlum" Series:Omertta, Mataresce Circle, Vulture is a Patient Bird, e.t.c
Then there are the Wilbur Smiths, The Tom Clancys, an a host of others.
Does anyone still know the author of these two enigmatic Books: "Spanish Inquisition" and "Blood Brothers"? I want them for keeps but cant remember the authors, or how l ca get them? help pls.

Then there are the "small volume" ones like the "Richest Man in Babylon, The Prince (Machiavelli), Rich Dad, Poor Dad; Cash flow quadrant, e.t.c

Did a little bit of "Mills & Boon" but l prefer to "act out" the romance instead of reading about it  Grin

Back then, l read so veraciously, my mum noticed and buys me Novels as birthday gifts!

For school proper (exam purposes), read: Weep not child, Gullivers Travels, Alan Quatermain, Treasure Island, Oliver Twist, Things Fall apart, Our husband has gone mad, Lorna Dunne, Alawiye, Efunsetan-Aniwura (Iyalode Ibadan  Grin), Ogboju-ode ninu Igbo Irunmole (that one gives me nightmares!), e.t.c

Realized that no one mentioned my pry school favorite (Alli and the Angel), not much of a Novel actually, was a school reading textbook.

BTW: I also read ma Bible Tongue Nice book, always new, every time!!

Well,I dont know how to quote a post but this is directed at an individual; TROYNOW, I happen to disagree totally with you on your view of THE TROJAN ODYSSEY,it's written by CLIVE CUSSLER and if you an avid novel reader,you would know that HE is a force to be reckoned with when it comes to Adventure,Thiller and Suspense novels.Clive Cussler rocks anyday anytime.I suggest you get some of his other books like RAISE THE TITANIC,WHITE SHARK and others that I can't remember right now.I can actually recommend them cos I've read at least a dozen of them.Ciao.

@nagoma.
Forgive me, my mistake  Grin

Now, worst book l've read?
Hmmm, can't remember, , l must have dropped it so fast, before even opening the first page!

I have a knack for knowing boring books, from their covers!
Just like l can tell a bad Record (the ones with excessive cover design!) from its cover  Grin

Seems all the effort went into the cover's design and not the song itself  Shocked Shocked

Thank you for drawing my attention to it.

A Farewell to Arms  by Ernest Hemminway. It was so boring that even though it was my literature text, I chose to fail questions from it rather than finish reading the book.

Patricia Cornwell's books are all boring.

The African Child By Camara Laye.

The Famished Road by Ben Okri - I couldn't make head or tail of it.
