    Favourite writers are Victor Hugo (Les Misérables and Hunchback of Notre Dame) and Alexandre Dumas (The Count of Monte Cristo and The Three Musketeers). I love these classics and can read them over and over again.

    Oh my... I have such an extensive list of favorite authors that it
    would be difficult to choose one or two. I've been a library rat
    since I was a child and voraciously read hundreds of books a year.

    Oh, RTLady, I'm exactly the same.
    Currently rooting around to read/find all the culinary mysteries I can.
    Otherwise - Jonathan Kellerman, Faye Kellerman, Patricia Cornwell, Robin Cook, Thomas Harris, Irving Stone, James Patterson....

    Hmmmm, Stephen King, Dean Koontz, Robin Cook in no particular order although I've gotten off King a bit.

    Oh and of course Shakespeare.....NOT.... sorry to my aunt who tried to shove it down my throat from the time I was 2 but I would have preferred you read me Dr. Suess.

    Love James Patterson... I have his entire collection in hardcover
    and recently started with Lisa Jackson paperbacks. Had more but
    when we moved, I had to severely trim down I've been selling
    off my hoard on Kijiji to make room for new titles.

    Just discovered Dickens properly thanks to free e-books.
    Pterrry Pratchett.
    Zimmer Bradley and McCaffrey for non-thinking sci-fi/fantasy. C J Cherryh for something a bit harder.
    Jared Diamond.
