I voted for Horror, Fantasy and the Crime, Thrillers, Mystery option. I've never explored the Sci-Fi genre, and have no particular desire to read a romance book. However, I do like it when my chosen genres do employ features from the other two genres. Stephen King's Dark Tower series suits me...

I personally own 55 (+ two incoming) books. However, there are many more in the family 'library'. The temptation to buy tons more is great, but I like to read them before they mount up!

If you do decide to read The Dark Tower series do not be put off by the first book, The Gunslinger. It is character building (perhaps in a mysterious way) and used to set the scene. I think I will have a go at the Three Musketeers! My dad would be happy, he loves all of the old stories. It's...

I'm 17 (surely that's young enough to still be a teenager? :) ) I really got excited by reading when I discovered Stephen King's work. I'd finally found an author who used everyday language and told easy to follow stories. I'm now trying to read some of the 'classics', and I have to say...

Thank you so much for your answers. I will of course let you know how I get on. Thanks again !

Hello all at 'b&r. I was wondering if anyone could either recommend, or point me in the right direction, to find a good book about the Salem Witch Trials. I would be most interested in a story based during the time (i.e a fictional story set in historically accurate time. That style must have...
