My current faves are:
By Kenn Follett
Pillars of the Earth
and World Without End


Then there is Diana Gabaldon's  "Outlander" series. Wow, I've read the first 4 in the series and I"m hooked.

I just read Heart's Desire by Laura Pedersen. While not as good as the inital Beginner's Luck it still is a great book about growing up filled with loveable wacky characters.

Yes Thomas Kinkade has a whole series of books about a small town named, Cape Light.
I am on book 5. I found them when I did a search at the library. I was looking for his art books and the series came up too. He writes them with Katherine Spencer.
My favorites authors are
Janet Evanovich, Nora Roberts, James Patterson, Robert B Parker, Thomas Kinkade, L. A. Banks, Laurell Hamilton, Charlaine  Harris, MaryJanice Davidson, Fern Michaels, Emilie Richards, Donna Hill. E. Lynn Harris, Patricia Cornwell - oh ok I will stop again. I love so many. I read everyday!!

P.S. How do I post a picture on my profile??

I just completed the book titled The Last Ember by Daniel Levin.  I love a "page-turner" and this definitely was just that!!!!

I think the book 'The Noticer' by Andy Andrews should be on everyone's shelves. It is a fictional book about 'perspective' and very inspirational.

I want to thank whoever recommended Harlan Coben books. I went to the library and got three of the authors you guys read. I'm into The Woods and it's hard to put it down. I usually read myself to sleep, but find with this book I'm reading longer and longer. Thanks so much!

I recommended for Stephenie Meyer books, it called The Twilight Saga. It's love life of Edward Cullen the vampire and Isabella Swan. I saw the movies too. The books become Best seller in here.

 My favorites from current fiction are Galway Bay, The Book Thief, and The Gurnesey and Potato Pie Literary Society (not sure if that's the exact title).  Everyon made me cry, but they are awesome stories and good cries.

I just finished a nice little book called The Quilt, by T. Davis Bunn. I found it while browsing on audible.com, so I actually listened to it on audio. Its a beautiful story about giving thanks.

Thomas Kinkade also has a juvenile series of books "The Girls of Lighthouse Lane" it is the companion series to the Cape Light series.
The Girls is co-written with Erika Tamar and The Cape Light series is co-written with Katherine Spencer.
I am reading "A Christmas Visitor" the 8th book in the Cape Light series. I hope there will be more to come.
There are 4 books in the Girls series. I have the 1st 3 on my night stand and just ordered the 4th from the library.
I have enjoyed my journey with Thomas Kinkade and Katherine Spencer.
Happy Reading!
