I want my readers to feel, to think, sometimes to laugh. But most of all I want them to enjoy a good read.
The Golden Compass is one of the best fantasy / adventure stories that I have read. This is a book no one should miss.
One book that I just think is absolutely beautiful is 'The Kite Runner.' I'd recommend that one to any and everyone.
If you're looking for a book that's not been influenced by 21st century popular culture and that's guaranteed to be a good read because it's stood the test of time, you can't go wrong with the classics.
'Use Me' is a wonderfully satisfying book.
A conventional good read is usually a bad read, a relaxing bath in what we know already. A true good read is surely an act of innovative creation in which we, the readers, become conspirators.
If fantasy is done well, it has both serious content in a literary fashion and is a really good read as well - and children and young adults won't suffer anything else.
The success of a science fiction writer is if he can write a good read.
