hmmm. .this is quite delicate. . I've devoured all Sheldons, and all Grishams (except one or two). Both authors write differently, and thus cannot be truly compared. If I had to choose, I'll go with Sheldon. Sands of Time was one of the best books I've ever been fortunate to pick up. . |

There is no basis for comparison. Apart from that Sid's books are sensual, they are the BOMB!!!! When i read a Sid, tis like am watching a film, the man researches well, has( or had since he z dead now) high govt connections; JG is good but he no near Sidney Baba (i have almost all JG's bks so i know what am saying) PROOF: IMAGINE IF SIDNEY SHELDON WROTE THE BROKER, JUST IMAGINE HOW EXPLOSIVE IT WOULD HAVE BEEN SIDNEY WAS GOOD AND BETTER AND BEST NOVELIST |

i'll go with grisham. i hear his latest "Ford county" is like the best he has written. |
Re: John Grisham Or Sydney Sheldon by SamMilla1(m): 10:54pm On Dec 07, 2009 |
Ford County Is Great, It all started there with A TIME TO KILL |

Sydney.I think Grisham is too soft n he doesnt know how to twist his plot.How can u even compare them Sidney is a master storyteller n in a class of his own. |
Re: John Grisham Or Sydney Sheldon by Akanniade(m): 4:20pm On Dec 29, 2009 |
I have read more grisham that sheldon. its quite difficult to say. |
Re: John Grisham Or Sydney Sheldon by Nobody: 9:54am On Dec 30, 2009 |
There's no contest. Sidney is leagues away from Johnny boy. JG can't hold a candle to 'sidney baba' |
Re: John Grisham Or Sydney Sheldon by omega25red(m): 3:34pm On Dec 30, 2009 |
i know this thread is old but i like "sheldon" hands down read "blood lines" if you can get your hands on it and tell me what you think |
Re: John Grisham Or Sydney Sheldon by mindeh(f): 7:28pm On Jan 02, 2010 |
my dear,it should be Bloodline not Bloodlines,all the same ave read it and its a very interesting read.it keeps you glued from the first page to the last.Sydney's suspense is unmatched.Its un-put-downable |
Re: John Grisham Or Sydney Sheldon by PwOnder(m): 12:49am On Jan 04, 2010 |
both |
Re: John Grisham Or Sydney Sheldon by MyneWhite1(f): 7:30am On Jan 04, 2010 |
I will have to go with Sheldon. He is more versatile, Grisham is usually about law and so on. |
Re: John Grisham Or Sydney Sheldon by SamMilla1(m): 1:01pm On Jan 04, 2010 |
Grisham Anyday Anytime |
Re: John Grisham Or Sydney Sheldon by Nobody: 3:09pm On Jan 04, 2010 |
Grisham is good but too conservative. Sidney is 100% pleasure. Sidney is the bomb!!! |
Re: John Grisham Or Sydney Sheldon by angelempy(f): 10:27am On Jan 08, 2010 |
[color=#006600]Sydney Sheldon - king of thrillers BUT John Grisham - Lord of Legal thrillers i really think Sydney is more broad and his works are more interesting[/color][color=#990000][/color] |
Re: John Grisham Or Sydney Sheldon by Mhismole(f): 8:19pm On Feb 28, 2010 |
silly argument. YOU CANT COMPARE THEM. there is not basis for comparison. it shuda been Sidney and Ted Dekker/ Dan Brown/ Danielle Steele. Then John Grisham and James Patterson/Dan brown/ James Hardley chase (pple that write according to a flippin pattern) . Dan brown is in both cos he's a religious twister and he's a patterned writer. as for this, sidney soo wins hands down. |
Re: John Grisham Or Sydney Sheldon by Pataki: 7:55pm On Mar 09, 2010 |
The comparison should have been: James Patterson/John Grisham. John and Sydney are totally different genre authors! |
Re: John Grisham Or Sydney Sheldon by Mhismole(f): 8:49pm On Mar 09, 2010 |
^ THANK YOU!! preach bro!! pple shud know their stuff before writing! |
Re: John Grisham Or Sydney Sheldon by Pataki: 9:06pm On Mar 09, 2010 |
Mhismole:Thanks Sis. So who do you prefer between James and John? I love James Patterson though. |
Re: John Grisham Or Sydney Sheldon by Mhismole(f): 5:09am On Mar 10, 2010 |
Im not really into them both, maybe James. I prefer the more open minded set of authors. |
Re: John Grisham Or Sydney Sheldon by cheyeboy(m): 10:57am On Mar 10, 2010 |
I prefer John Grisham,he's such a great writer of legal thrillers.Anyway guys ve got collections of both Authors and other favorite authors for free,to request a book;seyeoyeniyi@gmail.com |
Re: John Grisham Or Sydney Sheldon by SamMilla1(m): 11:19am On Mar 10, 2010 |
Mhismole: and by open minded , you meant ? |
Re: John Grisham Or Sydney Sheldon by Mhismole(f): 8:23pm On Mar 10, 2010 |
^^ sidney sheldon. Ted Dekker. They have staunch themes but theyr wide enuf to be flexible. |
Re: John Grisham Or Sydney Sheldon by SamMilla1(m): 9:55pm On Mar 10, 2010 |
Writing about everything, spies, aliens, etc is way too easier than writing for a particular topic. Grisham was able to make waves by just writing legal thriller. He can as well write spy boos with ease. Sheldon is good but copied a lot of chase style. Grisham has his own theme. |
Re: John Grisham Or Sydney Sheldon by shilling(f): 11:26pm On Mar 10, 2010 |
John Grisham!!!! |
Re: John Grisham Or Sydney Sheldon by Mhismole(f): 3:15am On Mar 11, 2010 |
@ Sam Milla Did yu say sheldon copied Chase? is that a fact? cos i find it nonsensical. |
Re: John Grisham Or Sydney Sheldon by ayettymama(f): 3:20am On Mar 11, 2010 |
havent read sydney but im very sure john grisham is better in fact the only person i will compare is james patterson |
