I received a $25 GC for XMAS from Barnes & Noble, and am looking for a good book to read, any suggestions? Or how about this question - WHAT was the last good book you read?
If you want to laugh and enjoy fantasy mixed with reality, the best book I've read this year is 'Fluke' by Christopher Moore. If you like a good English thriller that will keep you guessing try 'The Distant Echo' by Val McDermid. If you like a thriller that takes place in the country try 'Still Life With Crows' by Douglas Preston and Lincoln Child. I love to read and could go on and on so if you need more just PM me.

treading the backward path...
With The Da Vinci Code, Dan Brown masterfully concocts an intelligent and lucid thriller that marries the gusto of an international murder mystery with a collection of fascinating esoteria culled from 2,000 years of Western history.
A murder in the silent after-hour halls of the Louvre museum reveals a sinister plot to uncover a secret that has been protected by a clandestine society since the days of Christ. The victim is a high-ranking agent of this ancient society who, in the moments before his death, manages to leave gruesome clues at the scene that only his granddaughter, noted cryptographer Sophie Neveu, and Robert Langdon, a famed symbologist, can untangle. The duo become both suspects and detectives searching for not only Neveu's father's murderer but also the stunning secret of the ages he was charged to protect. Mere steps ahead of the authorities and the deadly competition, the mystery leads Neveu and Langdon on a breathless flight through France, England, and history itself. Brown (Angels and Demons) has created a page-turning thriller that also provides an amazing interpretation of Western history. Brown's hero and heroine embark on a lofty and intriguing exploration of some of Western culture's greatest mysteries--from the nature of the Mona Lisa's smile to the secret of the Holy Grail. Though some will quibble with the veracity of Brown's conjectures, therein lies the fun. The Da Vinci Code is an enthralling read that provides rich food for thought. --Jeremy Pugh
I've read it twice since I've gotten it. Once you get started reading it, it is hard to put down.

I love classic as well as contemporary literature; the last great book I read was The Stranger by Albert Camus. Other recent masterpieces I've read: Crime and Punishment by Dostoyevsky, Absalom! Absalom! by William Faulkner, A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man by James Joyce. Good Luck.....
