Thrillers and comedy - a nice combination!

Paul wrote in to suggest the following:
Thrillers written by Richard North Patterson, Tom Clancy, John Grisham, and Jonathan Kellerman. He finds that the tension in these books holds his interest and keeps him reading until the end; he freely admitted that sometimes he skips the long descriptive passages (e.g., the descriptions of weapons in Tom Clancy’s books) and focuses on reading the parts that move the story forward. This is perfectly OK when reading for pleasure!

Paul found it difficult to choose a favorite book, but did come up with the following recommendations:

Sein Language by Jerry Seinfeld

Sein Language by Jerry Seinfeld, which he says is “short and very funny.”


He also recommended the the more poetic books by Sam Shepard, which are short and enjoyable but more difficult to read.
