Moonspinners by Mary Stewart is on my list -- one of my favorites by her
Gunn: The final score can't be rigged. I don't care how many players you grease, that last shot always comes up a question mark. But here's the thing. You never know when you're taking it. It could be when you're duking it out with the Legion of Doom, or just crossing the street deciding where to have brunch. So you just treat it like it was up to you—the world in balance—'cause you never know when it is.

There's more to life than watching Buffy the Vampire Slayer! No. Really, there is! Honestly! Here's a place for Buffistas to come and discuss what it is they're reading, their favorite authors and poets. "Geez. Crack a book sometime."

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
I am too much of a chicken to read King.
Oh me too. Except the niecelet gave me some huge more recent book to read. She promised it won't scare me. And my dad seconded the rec, so I will soon have read King beyond On Writing.

On Facebook, a friend was looking at the NYT bestsellers the week she was born, and she got a Stephen King book, as did many of us.
Infant.
I got Valley of the Dolls! And Chaim Potok's The Chosen.

I got quite the male-dominated list: John Updike, Arthur Hailey, Gore Vidal, Leon Uris, William Styron, JK Galbraith, Durrell, Michener and Desmond Morris (ah, The Naked Ape, how horrified will I be if I ever re-read you again? Not that I'm likely to.).
