simplyn2deepA-Z of Books
shanachie_quill is reading a book for every letter of the alphabet and I thought that was a neat idea...and possibly easier (for me) than trying to read 50 books in the year (tried that, as well as 15,000 pages and didn't succeed)

Date: 2012-01-19 03:03 am (UTC)Oh, and this might sound incredibly morbid, but I absolutely love Sarah Vowell's "Assassination Vacation." She was the voice of Violet in "The Incredibles." The whole premise of the book is her taking her young nephew along with her to visit the sites of the Presidential assassinations of Lincoln, McKinley and Garfield. It's hilarious. All of her books are.
Also, Seth Grahame-Smith's "Pride and Prejudice and Zombies." Best book EVER. Okay, maybe not ever, but It was pretty brilliant. "Sense and Sensibility and Sea Monsters" by Ben H. Winters was also pretty good too.

Date: 2012-01-19 05:19 am (UTC)Oh! I remembered some more authors. The first is Steve Berry. I've enjoyed all his books. There are a few of his books that are stand-alone, and then he has the Cotton Malone series. The first book is called The Templar Legacy. The CM series is a combination of Jason Bourne meets Da Vinci Code.
The other one is David Gibbins. The lead character is an underwater archaeologist, kind of like Robert Ballard, who found the Titanic.
