Since I am beginning my summer vacation and am gonna have a bit of time on my hands I was hoping for some good suggestions of books to read. Any good ones?

Pat Conroy writes fiction...I guess you'd call them dramas. But they'll make you laugh, cry, and feel wonderful. Conroy makes love with words -- some of the best usage of the English language I have ever read. He writes about rites of passage and life experiences.....

What do you usually like for your summer reading Lil? You gotta reign me in before I drown you in things you'll absolutely hate .

marquis de sade? Read some of his works in a humanities course back in university...um....interesting reads to be sure.

Lord of the Rings definately!

Um, I would suggest the Avalon series by Marrion Zimmer Bradley for something different (fiction -- historical / fantasy). In order:
- The Fall of Atlantis
- The Forest House
- Lady of Avalon
- Priestess of Avalon (touches on some characters in Lady of Avalon)
- Mists of Avalon

Thanks for some great suggestions!!!!

GingerV~ historical fiction, horror, typically but I am flexible.

I recommend anything by John Irving, because he is my favorite author. If you're looking for a starting point, I recommend The Cider House Rules or A Prayer For Owen Meany.

The Cider House Rules Is my favorite movie ever.....I keep forgetting I want to read his stuff!

yes Lilith John Irving is a must read for a short list of others I love

Christopher Moore - a good start with him would be Practucal Demon Keeping kind of a horror comdie

Elmore Leonard - hard to recomend just one book by him but a good start might be Out of Sight he true one of the greatest crime fiction writers out there

Tom Robbins - start with Even Cowgirls Get The Blue and I'm sure you'll have to read everything he's writen

Carl Hiaasen - not sure if you read anything before knbow you correct steph on his name in a thread if you haven't read anything by him

Tim Dorsey - Florida Road Kill the first book I've read by him and I think his first book but it will have you LOL'in you ass off

Tim Sandlin - Skipped Parts is one more must read

Lilith you know where to find me if you need more I have a long list I could recomend

Well if you loved the movie, Lilith... the book is even better! Yes, I am one of those people that see movies and and comment on the book. The movie was wonderful, but it was nothing that a book could provide. I'm actually re-reading that book when I have the time.

Its a pretty good movie but they destroyed the book

Thats what happens a lot with books which are made into films, unfortunately. There are some exceptions though.
