for mature readers - descriptive romantic encounters


Oh I really like that site - just click a letter for a list of authors with last names starting with that letter.

I love that the year the books were published is given also - easier to read the series in order


Richard "D i c k" Francis is one of my old time favs {he's an ex jockey} so many of his books are set in and about the racing scene. mystery - murder, crime
I have to agree about the web site. I have it bookmarked. When I found the site I started a spreadsheet that I take with me to the library so that I don't get out of sequence on the series that I read!

It's also got a section on the bottom of the page where it shows if you like the author you're looking at you might also like these authors. I've found a couple of new authors that way. It sounds like most everyone on here so far likes edge-of-the-seat suspense, mystery, intrique, that kind of thing. Absolutely my favorite!!!!!

Are the Vince Flynn books any good?? I haven't started reading any of his yet but I do have them on my list. Also, has anyone read the Lincoln Rhyme series by Jeffrey Deaver? The first book of the series was made into a movie with Denzel Washington and Angelina Jolie - The Bone Collector. There are 7 books in that series, but I haven't read any of them yet either.

Vince Flynn series character Mitch Rapp is a CIA undercover operative. There is a lot of intrigue, special OPS stuff, CIA black OPS, covert operations - bombs, airplanes, cool weapons, stuff girls aren't supposed to like! LOL! Oh yeah, I love that stuff, especially with airplanes!

We must be a lot alike then (except I don't think I better try flyin' your plane ) because I love all that stuff too.

I checked out one of the books today so I'm going to get started on it and see how I like it.

Thanks!!

I just got Stephen King's Duma Key in the mail today (from amazon). I'll let you know what I think when I finish it - but that could be a while. I've been slacking on my reading.

Movies? Haven't seen any new ones lately. Saw Pirates III of course, and loved it of course. But I wait till they're on DVD and watch at home - I hate theaters.

I'm too short to see over anybody, lol.

That's why I like the amphitheatre style theatres. No one in front of you! I am short too. And the seats are staggered, no one directly in front of you.

That's the way Edwards built their theatre complex here in Boise.

The newest one in these parts - Maumee - is like that. Soooo expensive though. By the time you snag drinks and munchies, two people are spending over $30.

I'll wait till I can buy it, grab snacks at the grocery, and watch it on the couch in my fluffies and fuzzies. Costs the same, and I get to see it until I hear all the dialogue lol.

Anyone seen either of those?
