For this bookshelf list, I decided to come up with a list of authors instead of books. I felt like it was easier that way. But, as always, if you have any suggestions–books or authors–let me know.
1. Agatha Christie
2. James Patterson
3. David Baldacci
4. Sue Grafton
5. Robert B. Parker
6. Victor Methos
7. William Rabkin
8. Spencer Quinn
If there are any books you think I should add to this list, please let me know in the comments!
If you have an idea for a list I should make, feel free to Contact Me or let me know in the comments!

I should read more mystery. It’s a shame I don’t.
I should too, lol.
Any authors you recommend from this list aside from Baldacci and Patterson?
Sue Grafton, Agatha Christie, and Spencer Quinn.
Grafton has an ABC mystery series, the first book being “A For Alibi.” I’ve only read one Christie book so far (she has sooo many) but it was very good. Quinn has a mystery series with a dog in it, lol.
All right. Thanks!
I’ve seen Grafton’s books everywhere, but I can never find A For Alibi. True, Christie has tons. I don’t know where to begin. Okay, a dog is different…it’s good to know what I’m getting myself into.
I have Grafton’s books on my kindle. Easier that way, lol.
I started with one of Christie’s series because I can easily tell which book to get next.
So smart. Maybe I’ll look into buying her books. Every time I visit the library, I can never find what the first book.
Again, so smart.
It’s hard to figure it out. Plus at my bookstore all her books are on the top shelf. Very discouraging for short people like me, lol.
Oh no. I know how you feel!
I have read a few mysteries, but the only ones on your list I’ve read are Agatha Christie and James Patterson… And the sad thing is, it wasn’t a mystery I read by James Patterson but a YA sci-fi/fantasy… I couldn’t even name the authors I’ve read. Not off the top of my head…
Was it Witch and Wizard by James Patterson? I read the first book to that a long time ago, but never finished it. I plan to someday, lol.
Actually, as much as I’d like to read that one, it wasn’t it. I’ve read the first four or five in the Maximum Ride series. I loved the first one. The second one was good and the third was decent. It starts getting… weird… weirder?… after that. The whole concept of winged children, but after book three, the books started feeling more unbelievably out there than before. I will probably finish the series someday, but I don’t know how well I’d like it.
I tried reading that a long time ago, but never finished it. Still plan to read it someday.
