No not everyone .
I have read every book that Patterson has written,also all by John Connolly,John Grisham,Wilbur Smith,Michael Connelly,Michael North Patterson and Lee Child to name a few.None of these are meaningful,just good stories.
I also like an autobiography if I am interested in that person.
The last three books I have read are by Nelson DeMille.Some of his books centre round John Corey NYPD homicide detective,so if you like American detectives and you haven't heard of DeMille, I can certainly recommend him.
Each time I finish a book I am more than happy if I can say "I enjoyed that",and pass it on to someone.I don't read a book to dissect it and look for hidden meanings
Joseph O'Connor's "The Star of the Sea" is the only book I have read on recommendation from Richard and Judy's book club.Never again, it was a load of tripe,why I perceviered God knows.Since then I stick with what I want to read,not what someone else would like me to read.
