Hi! Your Erik Larson is not the Eirik Larsson of Rented Souls?

[Bluecobia]

For me it was Robert Heinlein .he got me started into science fiction as a teenager with Have Spacesuit Will Travel and his other young adult books. Later I read his more adult books like The Cat Who Walked Through Walls.

Chinua Achebe was forced down my throat by my father, I didn't like it at first but now, worth it.

As a kid I picked up Little Women and grew obsessed with Louisa May Alcott. This year I've been unable to resist anything Margaret Atwood. I read The Edible Women last December and immediately plowed my way through The Handmaid's Tale, Alias Grace, The Heart Goes Last, Stone Mattress, The Blind Assassin, Hag-Seed, Bluebeard's Egg, and her essay collection Writing with Intent. Still feel like I haven't made a dent in her collection! Next on my list is Oryx and Crake, The Year of the Flood, and Cat's Eye.

Martha Cecilia was the first author who made me read pocketbook series. ? I read her series the whole day before thinking of eating which triggered my stomach ulcers.

[Eko romansah]

Absolutely the books of Guy de Maupassant! A million series that he was created!

V.C. Andrews when I was in high school. Looking back, I wonder what those books were doing in the school library (It was one library for kindergarten-12th grade).

I read Sarah dressen. Now, it's Sonia Choqutte that I read everything by.

When I was little I started reading the Redwall book series by Brian Jacques; And I was absolutely in love with them.

[CaitlinGonya]

Sir Arthur Conan Doyle. I went out of my way to find every Sherlock story I could. I still like to read any Sherlock adaptations that I can.

[BookHausJ]

Norman Vincent Peale. My Positive mindset started when I red his book.

[Mouricia Allen]

This, of course, is JK Rowling. From the moment I read the first book, I was hooked, and I reread each book until I could get the next one until I completed the series.

Not sure if it was Enid Blyton or Arthur Conan Doyle. I read everything from them that I could find. Sadly our town library was quite small.
