Alphabetical Authors Game

Rapa asked me to help think of a Wednesday Game so this is what I thought would be interesting.

Alphabetically post an author you have read with one of the books you have enjoyed by that author.

If you memory needs jogging (like mine did) here is a link to fantastic fiction where you can browse authors alphabetically and it's fun to see which are the most popular authors and how many books each one has written.

It's fun to browse the lists.

I'll start with A...

Albom, Mitch... author of the popular Tuesdays with Morrie.

Who'll try B ?

ERDRICH, LOUISE.....author of THE MASTER BUTCHERS SINGING CLUB (2003). This was an excellent read circa post WWI when a German emigrates to America with a suitcase full of sausages and his butcher knives.

Perri O'Shaughessy - Unfit to Practice and others. Got this book by mistake and reading it now - so far very interesting read. All her books about law. Any one else read any of her books?
