Looking for a book

Colin Hey Guys,
I am new to this site but glad to be part of it.

I am looking for a good book to start. I just finished David Baldacci's No Man's Land, and before that Memory Man, The Last Mile, The Escape. I enjoy Baldacci's writing and his thrillers.

I have read a few of James Rollins books. I enjoy the concept of his writing however i dont enjoy all the many pages of cave diving and what not. He is a spelunker in real life which explains why he writes in great details about caves and tunnels and what not. Again the core of his historical fiction are great.

I really really enjoyed (and probably my couple favorite books) was 11/22/63 by Stephen King (AMAZING Book) & The Double Bind by Chris Bohjalian (What a great twist that had)....

I was a history major in college so i always enjoy historical fiction books. I was however, not a fan of "All The Light We Can Not See"... I struggled through that one...

I was a history major in college, so anything historical fiction or along those lines I would get into...

Let me know if anyone has any suggestions correlating to the above mentioned books.

Thanks Guys!


Caroline Do you want another thriller? This has no historical fiction elements, but it's a good, solid thriller. I just finished it a few days ago: The Kind Worth Killing.


Barbara Agree with Caroline about The Kind Worth Killing - a good story :)


Colin thanks guys I'll look into it right now... any other recommendations


Colin wow just read the synopsis and it sounds AWESOME... is it a good page Turner?? twists and turns and stuff ... never heard of that author ... my issue is I read primarily NY Times bestsellers and those are the lists I look at ... but this book like great... I think I'm going to start it first before I start Grishams THE Whistler... something is wanting me to read it and other half of me not to... he's a good author but the reviews were mediocre ... the book you guys talked about had more stars... by a Half. lol
... but ya sounds great . thank j

Yes. It's a good page-turner, and it had the most twists of any book I've ever read. This is only the author's second book--I'm not sure whether the first is a thriller, but I think it is--but it's much better rated than the first.


Colin thanks Caroline. . and u need to read The Double Bind by Chris Bohjalin. (misspelled last name) amazing psychological type thriller with HUGE twist at end :)


Colin starting the book you recommended now and I'm putting the whistler on the back burner lol. Grisham new book.

Ok. I really liked his book Midwives and have been meaning to read something else by him for a long while. He has a new book coming out too.

Let me know how you like The Kind Worth Killing!

I read some of that. and I saw his new book . didn't read his last book about some girl who partied and died or something. but ya trust me when I say the double bind ..
