Oh, I meant to talk about my all time favorite spy novel written by Forsyth, but forgot. Oh well...Next time around.<br /><br />I'm off to see your selections. :)Yvettehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08919246184376538331noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3185294584889963228.post-45219944008808203292011-08-26T22:33:35.949-04:002011-08-26T22:33:35.949-04:00You and I are connecting again.

I'm adding all of these books to my wishlist. I listed mysteries and thrillers as well, and have a completely different list! This is probably because I'm not as much of a connoisseur of the genre as you clearly are.

A really good writer would have made DAVINCI CODE a classic thriller. The elements were all there.<br /><br />Read the THE BOOK OF Q and see if you agree with me. I also recommend: THE OVERSEER by Rabb.Yvettehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08919246184376538331noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3185294584889963228.post-33488015447608454572011-08-25T10:31:29.586-04:002011-08-25T10:31:29.586-04:00Patti: You should love this.

I am particularly interested in The Book of Q. I just admitted in another comment that I read the Dan Brown books (well,not the most recent one), and while the story was intriguing, I'm not overly impressed with the writing. I think this could be the better alternative.Cassandrahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00362919925024094294noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3185294584889963228.post-858239261599978502011-08-25T10:07:10.933-04:002011-08-25T10:07:10.933-04:00Oh, that Book of Q sounds great.Oh, that Book of Q sounds great.pattinase (abbott)https://www.blogger.com/profile/02916037185235335846noreply@blogger.com
