I just gave this recommendation on another thread. Diana Gabaldon has a series that starts with Outlander. It is part historical fiction, part fantasy, and has a great love story. Her characters feel like people to me. I got to meet Mrs. Gabaldon this summer and she is quite a character.
I love Anne McCaffrey's PERN series as well. It follows a community from advanced scientists who due to a worldwide catastophe end up back to a bronze age lifestyle. There are dragons and all kinds of fun things. There are many books in that series, but they don't all have to be read in a particular order. |

If you want a sexy detective, try the Stephanie Plum mystery series by Janet Evanovich. Stephanie has two men after her heart--dark, dangerous bail bondsman Ranger and cool, homebody cop Joe Morelli. You'll chuckle on every page but swoon every time Ranger suddenly appears and says, "Babe."
Start with the first one, One For the Money, and read them in order for the best continuity. Even Stephanie's grandma occasionally gets into the action and has a thing about motorcycles. And Lula!! The series wouldn't be the same without Lula! |

"Ashes in the Wind" by Kathleen E. Woddiweiss. Or maybe the classics like "Mill on the Floss", "Jane Eyre","Little Women" and its sequel "Good Wives", "Wuthering Heights". I will add some more as I recall the ones I have read... :) |

I remembered another wonderful series by Mercedes Lackey called the Bardic Voices. The books are:
Lark and the Wren Robin & the Kestrel, The Eagle and the Nightingales Four and Twenty Blackbirds Each contain a great love story and are intermingled, but stand alone as well. I also have been enjoying the books out of her 500 Kingdom series of which she has only released 2. They are great stories and are funny, too. |

Hello there! If you want to check out my posting "Someone give me something to read" there are literally TONS of amazing recommendations.
I recommend Suzanne's Diary for Nicholas by James Patterson. It was recommended to me by a dear person, and I can only tell you that it will captivate you. |

Do you like the emotional tearjerkers? Read 'go ask alice' it's a diary of a 16-19 year old girl thrown into a messy world of sex and drugs, sounds a little hard to swallow but because its in a diary format, the mmain attraction is the way alice deals with her strife, I read it and developed C.P.T syndrome
