    I loved Tell Me Your Dreams. Btw, can we include "The Twist In The Tale" in the category?

    If you haven't yet read Twist In The Tale, log out immediately and go read that book!

    As of mystery books, The Da Vinci code is a great read. Apart, I too loved Tell Me Your Dreams.
    As of fictions, is there any Ayn Rand fan out here? Well am one!! The Fountainhead rests as my ever favorite novel.

    I also think "Da vinci code" is the most famous and mysterious books till today.
    Other than that sydney sheldon's lots of books are good and mysterious, but they are not as famous as Da vinci code.
    Few books of sydney sheldon, which I like the most.

    1.A stranger in the mirror
    2.If tomorrow comes
    3.The doomsday conspiracy
    4.The otherside of midnight

    i think DaVinci Code is the most mysterious of Dan Brown's collection , presently am reading his Angel's and Demons which is also very good,
    other than these i would recommend sydney sheldon's books like
    1 are you afraid of the dark?
    2 the sky is falling
    3 the blood line

    Has anyone read the second one? If yes, reviews please.

    1) Twelve red herrings by Jeffrey Archer
    2) All books by Agatha Christie, especially
    Murder on the Orient Express, Death on the Nile, etc.
    3) The girl with the dragon tattoo ( I read this book recently. It was good. I dont know who's the author)

    The davinci code , Angels and Demons , Deception point and Digital fortress are excellent mysterious novels by Dan Brown.
    And Alchemist is an excellent book in which there is much more to explore life .
    and hi to the Ayn Rand fan out there The Fountain Head and The Atlas Shrugged excellent.

    And i have a question guys any novel full of comedy ?
  • silverscorpion

    silverscorpion

    @silverscorpion-iJKtdQ Jan 20, 2009

    comedy.. you can try P.G.wodehouse. certain characters like Jeeves, Psmith and Mike are famous for their comic acts. Though, it's old british style comedy, with satire and irony mostly. Also the English is archaic with several words out of modern usage. But it'll be fun. Do give it a try.

    Recently I finished reading "The Doomsday Conspiracy" by Sidney Sheldon. What a novel! Its really interesting, smoothly flowing and keeps you engaged.

    He's a master storyteller, really !

    Yep, they sometimes had 2 characters from different novels working together. eg Hardy Boys and Nancy Drew.
    The only drawback was that you kept flipping pages back and forth. The good point was you got multiple stories in one novel.

    Dear differential- Its really not a great idea to read Danny(the great Dan Brown) boy's book, after reading romantic Sidney Sheldons.

    I stopped reading Sidney when I was in class 12th. If you will try a few suspense thriller novels you will definately like books liks Deception Point, Digital Fortress, DaVinci Code...

    Did you know? Naked face was Sidney Sheldon's first novel. It's racy and a very good read. Though not as good as some other books of him, this is indeed a fantastic one for a first book.

    I loved "The Joker"..I don't remember the author's name.. It is a very thick book (black cover with a joker on the front page).

    Its about mysterious things happening at a cozy little town. How four friends meet after years and go back to their old town to help put the dark secret to rest, the secret they swore they would not even think about!!
