The Book/Novel suggestion thread

[agantuk]

agantuk, I guess you didn't understand what bobby meant.

I did, I was referring to his thought that folks might find the idea of reading Sherlock idiotic, strange.

As far as Agatha Christie's works go, And Then There Were None continues to be one of her best till date. Lots of folks might have seen interpretations of the story in films - both Hollywood and closer home, but nothing beats the book IMO

no my friend, you've got me wrong.

what i was saying is me suggesting OP to read sherlock might seem idiotic to him . .since anyone thinking of reading thrillers/detective stories read sherlock holmes stories first

^ Haven't heard of it. Another of my long time favourites is the Frederick Forsyth's The Day Of The Jackal. Brilliant stuff. Even more so considering the time when it was written.
