I love Oscar Wilde, but two of my other favorites are Stephen King and Billie Letts.

Just what I need to get another addiction.. But i am going to look anyway.

I'm addicted enough through the local library. A paperback swap sounds like a dangerous thing. But I have heard of a group that leaves books on trains and subways with a website stamped inside. Anyone who reads the book is supposed to log on, tell where they found the book and where they left the book. never saw one of the books, but I thought it was a cool idea!
A 'Where's George' for books.

My favorite author is Francine Rivers. She's wonderful!

My favorite author is Mark Twain, because of his writing style . . . people can relate but he doesn't have to dumb down his writing to do so. But I mostly like his short stories; he didn't write any of my favorite books, like Pursuit of Love by Nancy Mitford.

Ayn Rand for her philosophies...Shelby Foote for his Civil War history...Steve Martini for his crime/legal thrillers.
