Met a guy who had his first novel published. Read it to see for my self and really liked it. A little slow start but awesome story after that. Title was Lincoln's Treasure.

Give the Station Series by David Downing a try. The first one is Zoo Station.
Crime/Spy series set in Berlin during the war.

Have you read Empire Falls and/or Straight Man? If so, how does it compare to those two? Because I enjoyed both of those.
I'm about 19 pages into Empire Falls. The writing is the same, but I haven't gotten into it yet. I just finished "Everybody's Fool," which was the sequel to Nobody's Fool. It was a good read, but not quite as good.

Cool, I'll add Nobody's Fool to my to-read list.

Oh Phate, is that mystborn series by Sanderson include "The way of Kings? " I couldn't get in to that book and its writing style . Have you read Way of Kings? Does it pick up eventually ? I just keep waiting to get hooked in and can't .
I have also read about half of Neil Gaimen's American Gods and I feel kind of Meh about good ole Shadow and Thursday...doesn't seem like it's trying to go anywhere .

I will always say the Mitch Rapp series by Vince Flynn or The Camel Club series by Baldacci.

The Book Thief was terrific. It starts out slow, but if you'll stick with it you'll love it.

Don't read A Confederacy of Dunces. Everyone says it's the funniest book they've ever read, but I just didn't enjoy it

So please, by all means, don't read the Pulitzer Prize winning novel that everyone tells you is the funniest book they've ever read.

The Brothers Karamazov is the greatest novel of all time. No hyperbole. It's heavy reading at times in that it tackles hedonism and the absurdity of life without a God. But most importantly, it was written with the shadow of Communism looming over the horizon and correctly foreshadowed its folly.

The nightingale to keep with the ww2 theme. It was a great book.
