Thanks to Lori's Reading Corner for the idea for another Meme. I love these things lol
Basically every Saturday she will put up a new topic and everyone who participates posts on their blog about it. This week's spotlight (my first one!) is to tell about my favorite male mystery writer!
I had a hard type picking considering its true - I am gender-biased and usually read works by women - but I finally picked James Patterson. The first book I ever read by him was Along Came a Spider and it was AH-FREAKING-MAZING! One of the best suspense/thriller/mysteries of all time in my not-so-humble opinion. I could read it over and over again (if I ever locate my tattered copy lol). He really has a knack for pulling in his readers from page 1, paragraph 1 and not letting go. Naturally, he has had some misses (like most of the books in the Women's Murder Series!) but overall, he's a keeper and has earned his millions hehe. Other books I HIGHLY recommend by him are The Beachouse and Kiss the Girls.

ReplyDeleteI really need to give Patterson another try. Especially seeing as he's a favorite of so many.

I lurve James Patterson too...Kiss the Girls is a fave f mine but sadly he's only number too for me because Stieg Larsson is the one who got me into this genre and lead me towards James Patterson...great pick!
ReplyDeleteI love JP too! Love the Maximum Ride series and the Women's Murder Club. Great choice :)
