Whoever told you James Patterson is gory? He write mostly about a cop trying to cath serial killers. People may die, but he does not "do" gory..... Some of his book are even love strories....
Seriously, while he does write "crime" stories, he is really not gory at all. While he might not be to everyone's tastes, he is a good author (but so are many, many, MANY others
).
Really, I am very keen to be a part of this book club, I just think it is going to be really difficult to get us all to agree on a title/author, but I thought the whole point of this (well, for me anyway) was to get peope to branch out and try something new....
sounds good....
...i did not say i disliked gory stories...i have read lots of petterson books and i quite enjoy reading them...
.just quoting others.
as i said in the beginning, feel free to discuss any book...read it and discuss it..u never know who has read it and will join in the discussion...
