Are you #665 on the waiting list for the latest bestseller? Think of it as an opportunity to introduce yourself to a book or, if you’re really lucky, an entire series you haven’t tried before. Need a suggestion? We can help!
While you are waiting for Janet Evanovich’s Sizzling Sixteen [2]to arrive why not check out the Bubbles Yablonsky [3]series by Strohmeyer ? If you are waiting for Lee Child’s 61 Hours [4]why not kill the time with one of these choices: Barry Eisler’s John Rain [5]series, Michael Connelly’s Harry Bosch [6]series or Stephen Hunter’s Bob Lee Swagger [7]series.
Many of your favorite authors' books share traits in common. We can suggest books with a similar style to a novel that you like. The similarity may be in the writing style, setting, plot or type of characters. For example, many people who read David Baldacci’s [8]works also try James Grippando [9]or Stephen J Cannell’s [10] novels. If you like the Sookie Stackhouse [11]vampire series you might want to try Nice Girls Don’t Have Fangs [12]by Molly Harper or Bloodsucking Fiends: a Love Story [13]by Christopher Moore.
