This week’s twist:
To answer the weekly question, my favorite new-to-me author is actually a debut author whose first novel I couldn’t put down.  It was phenomenal!!!  And ironically, today I am hosting him as a “Guest Author” (see post 1 of 3) and the above post is an early exclusive!!!  The author is, Vincent Zandri, and if you like thrillers, than you are in for a treat when you read his books!!  I was introduced to him in May when I read and reviewed Moonlight Falls. (all links in Post #1) and have been a fan since.

TELL US ABOUT THE BOOK YOU ARE CURRENTLY READING!
  My current read is Grace Under Mystery by Julie Hyzy.  I don’t want to give too much away because I am almost done and will tell all in my review.  But I will say it is a cozy mystery that has me turning the pages in the suspense.  A really good cozy!!!

TODAY’S TWIST:
RIGHT THIS INSTANT, WHAT BOOK ARE YOU DYING TO GET YOUR HANDS ON (PAST, PRESENT, OR FUTURE)?
MY ANSWER:
I have quite a few in my TBR Review Pile that I am anxious to read, but can’t because I have to honor my “Review Policy” whereas I read in order of receiving.  To be honest, I can’t wait to read all of them (see right sidebar) but there are two that I am “DYING TO GET MY HANDS ON” and they are both “new” authors that I read their earlier books .  

One is the manuscript for Titanic 2012 that was sent to me by the author, Bill Walker.  I read his earlier book back in February and loved it, A Note from an Old Acquaintance.  I am honored that he asked that I read his manuscript and give my honest opinion, even before it goes to press.

The second is also a “new” author, Vincent Zandri.  I read and reviewed his book,  Moonlight Falls, and it was like reading a Patterson book.  His newest, The Remains, is on bestseller lists already and getting rave reviews, but, again I have to wait and follow my “Review Policy” criteria.

Guess I will have to read faster so I can get to these 2 books.

Today’s Twist:
This week’s question: Tell us about some of your favorite authors and why they are your favorites!
  There are many authors that I try to read as many of their books that I can and a few would be:  James Patterson, Lisa Jackson and Karen Rose for well known authors.  The suspense grips you to the very last page.
  Since I have been reviewing, I have had the opportunity to read many debut authors and there are 2 that, I think, are right up there.  Their books are from different genres and from reading the reviews across the blogosphere, I am not the only one who thinks that they are worth watching.  First, since I mentioned authors in the suspense/mystery genre, would be Vincent Zandri author of Moonlight Falls and his newest one that I can’t wait to read, The Remains.  He is a blend of Patterson and Hitchcock.  Second, would be an author that I read and reviewed his debut back in Feb. and loved it.  A mixture of romance/suspense.  His writing style was such that you became so engrossed with the characters, their lives and transported to the setting in the plot.  All the makings for a great read.  He is Bill Walker, author of, A Note of An Old Acquaintance.  I found out yesterday, when visiting Bookventures Author’s Chat that he is in the process of writing a sequel..can’t wait.
