I happen to read one of James Hardley Chase's books and I was anything but terribly disappointed. Boredom almost nagged me to death. After all the tiresome sermons preaching his hype, there was nothing to make valid the praises.
Disappointed? Try 'want 2 stay alive' or 'do me a favour, drop dead' or 'well now, my pretty' or 'i'm holding d 4 aces' etc, all by JHC. They'll change ur 4mer verdict.

Hi guys,I was wondering what the best novel you ever read is..For me
it has to be Robert Ludlum's MATARESE CYCLE. A blockbuster that
kept me on the edge of my seat all through! Its been over many years
but still feels like yesterday. Classic!
anything from AWS (African Writers Series) and of course Robert Mason.

I also like love at stake "how to marry a millionaire vampire" and the rest of the series, James Hadley chase "Easy come easy go"
I'm a fan of Horror and paranormal genres too, & a little blend of romance. I like how Kerrelyn Sparks writes as an author. I enjoyed her book 'The Undead Next Door'. Blazed through its pages in 3 days.

My favourite Novel has to be Terry Goodkind's The Sword of Truth novels series.

If you have not read this book then you really are missing out on a glorious experience.

Since I came across this extraordinary book mid last year, I have been glued to my screen like a hungry leech.

Everything about this book is just magnificent. The characters, the Wizard's rules and how they are tightly, beautifully, if not perfectly, embedded in each book, how all the cascading events in the series are precisely woven together into one gigantic lop is mind-boggling.

Suspense that will make your mind race in a sudden rush. At times when I read up to a thrilling part, I can't just help but to drop my phone, stand up, close my eyes, grinning joyously and I flow with the moment into another world.

The Feeling is bliss.

Is that the one with the bad guy dream walker Jagang? The one with Darken Rahl and his father Panis Rahl? Absolutely fantastic.

If you love fantasy books you might also wish to read "The Wheel of Time" series by the late Robert Jordan. It's a lovely piece of work.
