You have got to be kidding. I have found many, many authors in your newsletter. I have also gotten five other readers to subscribe to your weekly newsletter. Keep up the great work. Thank you so much from an avid reader who gets up on Saturday mornings to head to the computer before my coffee to read it.

The author and book I discovered on Bookreporter.com was Me & Emma by Elizabeth Flock.
maestraw@msn.com
The latest author I discovered on Bookreporter.com was Elizabeth Flock. I read Me & Emma and was captivated. It is my favorite book so far this year. I love reading Word of Mouth to see what everyone is reading and enjoying. I found Life of Pi, The Namesake, and The Kite Runner by going against my gut instinct and listening to the thoughts of other readers. Thanks for helping me step outside of my comfort zone.

One memorable author I met on Bookreporter.com is Daniel Silva. I love his style and am trying to read all that he has written. There are other good authors I have also found on Bookreporter.com, but they are too numerous to mention. Keep up the good work!

One author you all have discovered for me is Jodi Picoult (I heard she pronounces it Pekoe, like the tea). I read The Pact and My Sister's Keeper and am looking forward to her new one. Thanks to all, what a great service.

I recently discovered an author who's been around for a while but whose work I never read before. I received Tess Gerritsen's latest hardcover as a Christmas present this year and I loved it. She is right up there with James Patterson, Jonathan and Faye Kellerman, and Patricia Cornwell. I loved her book so much I went to the bookstore and bought as many of her earlier books as I could find. I haven't read them yet as I am reading something else at the moment, but I can't wait to read them. It's always good to find a new author who can keep me interested in her work. I am adding her to my list of favorite psychological thriller authors.

Stephen White, the first suspense author after I became a member.

The Speed of Light by Elizabeth Moon. It's a fascinating book, written from the point of view of an autistic man. Although it was unlike what I usually read, I found it so absorbing that I read it in a day.
MMarcia48@aol.com
Rick Riordan. I have watched the growth of his considerable talent. Thank you for recommending him.
CPitman141@aol.com
I read (and it was hard to find) Encyclopedia of an Ordinary Lifeby Amy Krouse Rosenthal, which I read about last month in your newsletter. It is such a hoot!!! I took it on vacation and read excerpts to everyone!!
Corinna H Bonk
Carter Coleman (Cage's Bend)

Havana Nights by Colin Harrison
WmsWtrkt@aol.com
The Secret Life of Bees by Sue Monk Kidd (after I'd read it I realized a nonfiction book lent to me many years ago was also by her!)
peggyhagel@cox.net
I "discovered" Jodi Compton in your newsletter. I just finished reading The 37th Hour and plan to read Sympathy Between Humans as soon as I finish the books I have checked out of the library now. The 37th Hour is a really gripping thriller and hard to put down. It reminded me of Lisa Gardner's books.

I discovered The Heartbreakers by Carly Phillips.
snoopydoc@houston.rr.com
Jodi Picoult
FalseMillennium@aol.com
I discovered Dennis Lehane on the Bookreporter website, previous to the release of Mystic River. Based on one review, I went and secured all of his books from the library, and I read them in chronological order. It only kept getting better. I am forever grateful for discovering his name on your site, as he is now one of my favorite authors.
rischoni@comcast.net
I discovered Richard Montanari and his book The Rosary Girls, which I'm reading at present.
txrose101@aol.com
I discovered Carolyn Haines on Bookreporter.com. I first read the "Bones" detective stories and enjoyed them so much that I read others by her. She really makes you think when you read her books. I love her characters. I am eager to visit her Mississippi Delta.
Sheila1029@aol.com
Carter Coleman, author of Cage's Bend. Loved it!!!!!
jbrooks@mybizz.net
I discovered Harlan Coben because of Bookreporter.com.
MScaramell@aol.com
I read the book Me & Emma by Elizabeth Flock. I can't say that I enjoyed the book, but Bookreporter gave it an interesting review and introduction.
Reva Wamsley
Rita Mae Brown. I had seen books by her mentioned on the website so when I saw some of them at the bookstore, I bought a couple and enjoyed them very much.

I discovered Jodi Picoult on your website and love her!
bonnieathome@buckeye-express.com
One author I discovered on Bookreporter was M.J. Rose, and the book The Halo Effect left you full of questions and secrets as you turned one page after another. Very good author.
ronlavon@wave.net
I found Alexander McCall Smith and have really enjoyed every one of his books so far and am waiting for three more to come from Amazon.
Hon2724@aol.com
I found Nickel and Dimed by Barbara Ehrenreich. Wonderful, interesting and enlightening.

Jodi Picoult

Jasper Fforde. I've now read the first four and am eagerly awaiting the "Next" installment; they are laugh-out-loud funny.
Sharron
I read a couple of reviews on Word of Mouth (one of my favorite sources for book reviews) and talked my book group into readingIf Nobody Speaks of Remarkable Things. This was one of the best, most lyrical, almost poetic books we have read, and we had a wonderful discussion.
Fafajane@aol.com
My Sister's Keeper, and I loved it!
jscady@efieldguide.com
I generally don't read Female Detective series so I had avoided the Perri O'Shaughnessy books. But after reading one of your reviews, I tried one, and loved it. Well, it is about a woman lawyer, but a tough one, and there are plenty of men around. Plus I love her locales, which are detailed enough for me to drag out the atlas to pinpoint the action.

I've discovered a lot of books through this site. One of my favorites was The Romanov Prophecy by Steve Berry.
bjbookman@msn.com
Jodi Compton. I've just finished her first, The 37th Hour, and about to start her newest, Sympathy Between Humans. I feel she will be a major talent.
CortelC@wyeth.com
M.J. Rose
ritahunt@adelphia.net
Ellen Sussman and her debut book, On a Night Like This
Barbara Lewis, Grants Pass Oregon
Michele Martinez. Her Most Wanted was one of the best debut novels of its type that I've read in a long time. I can't wait for her next one!
Lenore in Alabama
The Know-It All. I gave this to my husband for Christmas. He keeps it in the bathroom and I can hear him chuckling quite often. Then he'll come out and tell me some fascinating thing he's learned. He loves this book!
