J.K.Rowling , v.c.andrews, danielle steel and L.M.Montgomery ( anne of green gables)

 

[Grayson’s Mummy Julia]

I have to recommend Charlaine Harris to anyone who likes murder mysteries or supernatural books. I’ve read every single one of her books and am actually waiting for her to finish her next book
My fave series is the Harper Connolly books about a young woman who was struck by lightening and can now find dead people and see the cause of death as a result. Fantastically different but still with an awesome plot.

Gabriel García Márquez and Isabel Allende

Have you read any Laura Esquivel or Rudolfo Anaya?

Have you read any Laura Esquivel or Rudolfo Anaya?

Yes I have these two of Laura Esquivel ; I've read them in Dutch (because my Spanish is very basic)
1st one is 'Como agua para chocolate' (I liked that one very much)
2nd one is 'Tan veloz como el deseo'

 

[DreamerRose]

I like too many authors to just name one. I have read all the Harry Potter books and all of Jane Austen. Probably some others, but can't recall who.

I read them in English because my Spanish is also basic. (I do read it better than I can speak it by far.) Haha! I loved "Like Water for Chocolate."

If you can and have not already, read "Bless Me, Ultima" by Rudolfo Anaya. It can be a bit too magniloquent at times for some readers. I personally think the style suited the story, but I know some people---[*cough*,*cough*] my husband--who do not like it. It really is a wonderful story. The Trementina sisters in it have always intrigued me.
