    Hi everyone!

    Hi everyone, I have neglected the site for a very long time, don't even remember if I ever introduced myself. I love reading very very much, very different genres, lately lots of thriller and action (Baldacci, Reilly, Rollins, Coben) but also fantasy (Gemmell, G.G.Kay), "young readers" books...

    Greetings from a masochistic frenchy

    Welcome Marc, I'm sorry for you...being french... speaking french... that must be tough:lol: I'm italian and stubbornly refused to learn french, but I must admit there are some excellent writers. I think Hugo is my favourite one (among the french writers I mean) but - jumping some centuries -...

    I'm reading Israel/Palestine - how to end the war of 1948 and it's worrying me. Here an Israeli saying the opposite of what we usually think about the israeli/palestinian situation and stating that the israeli propaganda is carried around by the western society and keeps laying. For example she...

    What crime/horror/thriller/mystery books have you read and found appealing?

    I think Harlan COben writes excellent thrillers, I expecially like the Myron Bolitar series. Also love the Lincoln Rhyme series by Jeffery Deaver and the Pendergast series by Preston & Child. I read all Patricia Cornell's bokks: each worse than the previous one. so I quit reading her :-)

    errors in Lee Child book

    I think Stephen Hunter, in the "acknowledgments" at the end of The 47th samurai explains this perfectly and funnily when he writes: no reader should impute to me any deep knowledge of the way of the sword. I'm a writer, not a samurai; I tell stories, I don't cut enemies down..... Send angry...

    New Authors to try

    I read the first Repairman Jack books one after the other, just couldn't stop:innocent:. Now I'm slowing down cause there are so few left :sad: Try Codex Alera, by Jim Butcher, I found them awesome. Each better than the previous one, amazing plot, wonderful characters, real one: they grow, they...

    errors in Lee Child book

    Hi, I have read each and every book by Coben, I think he is great! the plot are always twisting and keeps surprising (though he is quite obsessed with past hunting the present), he is often funny (ever read the Myron Bolitar series?) and his characters are real: no hero, no totally evil vs...

    errors in Lee Child book

    I do agree with you. I like Reacher a lot, but Worth Dying for disappointed me too. Reacher does not seem to be himself, the book is slow. I usually do not care if there is something unbelievable (ok, Reacher knows exactly what time is it, so what?) but in this book he really seems to act...
