Jodi Picoult is by far my favorite author. Her last book, House Rules kept me awake all shabbos.

Give me a Harlan Coban or Patricia Cromwell any day. I know, not as classy as Dostoyevski but I cannot tell a lie.

Harlan Coban is good...I've some of his novels if someone wants to trade with me...Also Michael Connelly...But Cromwell isn't as interesting to me, don't know why but I can't get into her books or Kellerman.
