Who Are Your Favorite Authors? Favorite Books?


Recommended Posts

Thanks 'forbidden' and 'ryan00' for the advise. I am an entrepreneur besides being a book lover so I read mostly business books. Kotler has always been the marketing guru and he had taught many basic principles. In Search of Excellence first came out in the early 80's. I also read it, a little dated really but you can get a lot of ideas to apply to your company.

 

Anyway I also like to read other types of books. Classics, Best sellers, Biographies (especially about Bill Gates and Jack Welch!), etc. (I even read all the Harry Potter books!).

haha!!! :lol: oo nga lent na... :P

 

i haven't read much mexican literature... ganun ba talaga yun??? :rolleyes:

Latinos are passionate people so it sort of translates into their literature......Gabriel Garcia Marquez, Vargas Llosa, Isabel Allende - their works, although differently-themed sometimes always have some sprinkling of sensuality throughout their pages :P

 

......also, looking at your avatar makes me forget it's Lent

I don't know if there's anybody here who's into mysteries but I've always been a fan of Agatha Christie, Sherlock Holmes, Rex Stout, etc - devoured almost all of their books years ago......

 

Lately I've been into non-fiction but I've heard of Ian Rankin and his Inspector Rebus books.....parang I want to check them out - rich in atmosphere and characterization daw because they're set in Rankin's native Edinburgh.....
