I don’t know about you, but my bookshelf is overflowing with wonderful authors and it’s been too long since I’ve read someone new, or old but new to me I’m feeling the need to read lately and would like to be exposed to different points of view. So,I’ve decided to include you in my search for new voices to read.here’s a short listof my preferredgenres and authors ..

Biographies, including autobiographies ,specificallyabout famous women
Political thrillers Gore Vidal

Classics like Rebecca, wuthering heights
Vampire fiction Ann Rice
Easy reads Dan Brown, JK Rowling
Anything gritty Truman Capote, Harold Robbins

Don’t b afraid to challenge me or recommend outside my favourite genres
If you’re an author, feel free to plug your work, but you might have to sell me on it
I’m very much looking forward to seeing what recommendations come in. I like to read all of an authors work, so if they’re prolific, that works for me.
