Do they have to be romance related? If not, I’d try the Dean Koontz and Steven King shelves at the library/bookstore. A lot of their books apply to multiple categories. BTW, they are wildly uneven as writers. Some of their books are brilliant and others feel like they’ve been phoned in. If you like, I”d be glad to give you some recs.

  • Dean Koontz: I really liked From the Corner of His Eye and One Door Away From Heaven and an older title, Lightening. (Watchers is probably my fave, though!)
    Steven King: You might try the Green Mile serials. His wife, Tabitha, is also a fantastic author, although not nearly as prolific.
    In the romance genre, I was packing some of my books in boxes and came across three titles you might try by Linda Howard. Now You See Her (ghost), Mr Perfect (serial killer – and hilarious), and Son of the Morning (time travel/paranormal events).

    Jen, he’s so tiny! I bet Moses’ head weighs more than Jasper does. :) Congratulations! And, I look forward to hearing more about PCC Jr. in the future.

    You do realize that Taylor Kitsch, our beloved Tim Riggins, is also signed up for the Battleship movie? And they’re going to be filming at least some of it here in BR? I’m going to have to get some new sneakers to do some stalking, lol…

    I intended to watch Pretty Little Liars. I still may, but I just haven’t felt the urge to search it out. For that matter, I haven’t been watching t.v. much at all so far this summer; I’ve really been taking advantage of my netflix subscription. Even Burn Notice, which used to be must see t.v. for me, hasn’t really kept my attention. I don’t really have an explanation.

    sorry, can’t help you. I’m not a reader of any of those genres.

    I’m not sure why, but I also don’t get into YA. I think its because I like things to get a little down and dirty.

    LOL. Sometimes even the grown-up books make me yell, “Oh my god. Would you two just do it already!”

    Well, look at you, reminding me that other genres exist. I used to be rabid King and Koontz readers, but that kind of fell away when I went to college. I’d love some specific recs of recent books that are worth my time. I loved IT, The Stand, and many of the short stories by King. I liked Watchers and The Mask by Koontz.
