Bookaholic Posted July 13, 2016 Share Posted July 13, 2016 It's a long time since I had a real page turner. I like a good plot with a hint of romance and don't mind historical but hate crime and sci-fi. Any suggestions please? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dtrpath27 Posted July 14, 2016 Share Posted July 14, 2016 Hmm...I tend to think of sci-fi, action, mystery, and suspense when I think of page-turner. What are some examples of books you've really enjoyed? Cry, the Beloved Country by Alan Paton is mesmerizing -- no romance, though. 31 Hours by Masha Hamilton is supremely riveting, but controversial. The Camel Bookmobile by the same author is captivating and has a bit of a love story woven in. If you happen to like a little mystery, I really was stuck on Malice by Higashino Keigo.

VictorC4C Posted September 8, 2016 Share Posted September 8, 2016 If you are a fan of the old guys I would recommend you The Count of Monte Cristo - Alexandre Dumas. It was a page turner for me, it is a long book, but was among the fastest I have ever read (I like to keep my peace and read slow). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
