My favorites are: Sandra Brown, Kay Hooper, Susan Elizabeth Phillips, Sue Grafton, Joy Fielding, Sidney Sheldon, Tami Hoag, Kasey Michaels, Edna Buchanan, Lillian Jackson-Braun, Carole Nelson Douglas, Nora Roberts, Olivia Goldsmith (recently passed away), Olivia Rupprecht, and good old Jackie Collins. There are others I like occasionally, but I will read everything that comes out from the above authors.
Who do you all like?
My favorites are J.R.R. Tolkien, H.P. Lovecraft, Edgar Allen Poe, the writers of the Dragonlance series, Marion Zimmer Bradley, Isaac Asimov, Robert Heimlein, Carl Sagan. I haven't gotten much of a chance to explore the vast world of reading, but when I do, there will probably be more authors or I'll probably know more works from the ones I already like.
high cat lover, I know I alredy said this on the e-pals board, but you're about the only one who read it, so. Stephen king, dean koontz, danielle steel, madelein brent, victoria holt, phyllis a whitney, and v c andrews. I've read a few of the sandra brown novels, and some i like better than others. can't remember if i've read any by kay hooper, or tammy hoag, or some of the others you mentioned.

Wonderwoman,
You might like Kay Hooper. I recently read one series of books by her that have some super natural themes that you might like since you like ghost stories. Try: Haunting Rachel, Finding Laura, and After Caroline by her.
thanks cat lover, I will. Right now, I have over 200 titles in my request list from the library for the blind in raleigh, and they only allow 300 titles per user. When i get the numbers down, i will have to do a search on her and see what books they have by her. It could be that i've already ordered a couple, but i've ordered so many, I can't remember what I ordered, its when i get the cassette books in the mail, and listen to the book jacket information, I think, yeah, I think i might've ordered that. Thanks again for the recommendation, when i get the numbersdown, I will do a search on her from the library's website, and see what they have on her.
