For me, J. Grisham ranks top, love twists to his stories.

I guess you just scan through the pages, or you just don't  do anything else. Nice though

Most people don't seem to believe I can read that fast. If you ask my friends they'll tell you I'm that fast. In exams I usually finish 40-50 minutes before everybody because I read fast.

I also have very good memory -- if you want me to give you a quote from a book I've read, I'll oblige you.

I think J.K Rowling of Harry Potter is pretty good. Also Dan Brown of The Da Vinci Code.

When it comes to authors, i don't have the best, because they're many.
Mostly, John Grisham, Agatha Christie, R.L. Stine, Christopher Pikes, and many more.
they're all great with different characters, so they're all the best and they all rock.

They're like Nigerian movies -- you always know how they're going to end.
