Topic: What Book Am I?

Posted by: kaddarsgirl

Subject: What Book Am I?
Date: Sep 02 12

This works like the movie and people threads. You ask yes/no questions, and the person who correctly guesses the book gets to pick the next one.

Books can be either fiction or non-fiction, must be classified as a novel or novella. This means no plays, poems, or short stories.

I will begin with:

What book am I?

The old reply to thread function was removed because it got to the point where people weren't even reading the announcements and assuming, by default, that they were somehow being wronged or forgotten or insulted or abused or cheated out of something in some manner.

adams627 John Grisham, maybe?

No, sorry. This man has written far more books than Grisham.

Lonesome Dove?

No, think of someone along the lines of Patterson in terms of both volume and best seller list popularity.

How about Clancy?

Nope, not Clancy. I believe this guy is more prolific.

perhaps one of Lawrence Block's characters, hmmm, which on: Matt Scudder, Chip Harrison, Bernie Rhodenbarr or Keller (are there others?)
OK, a stab "The Burglar in the Closet"?

Nope. He's regularly on the best seller lists.

diade68 Jeffery Deaver?

diade68 The Bone Collector

No, not him. Here's a small clue: the main character in his longest series is a former police detective, now lawyer.

Is it, perhaps, Chiefs?

Ah.....you've got it, Toby! Stuart Woods' first novel, which was made into a successful mini-series in 1983. It's been years since I read it, but I think it's probably a lot better than his Stone Barrington (and several others) series, which are just entertaining fluff.

You're up.

Thanks, jabb. I'll sample some Stuart Woods.

I'm the second novel by a living Englishman.

John LeCarre's (sp?)" A Murder of Quality"?

Reply #897. Oct 30 12, 7:43 PM

A thriller?

Reply #898. Oct 30 12, 9:06 PM

"First Among Equals" by Jeffrey Archer?

Reply #899. Oct 30 12, 9:10 PM

None of the above.

Not a thriller.
