This is a question Books

We love books. Tell us about your favourite books and authors, and why they are so good. And while you're at it - having dined out for years on the time I threw Dan Brown out of a train window - tell us who to avoid.

What's so awful about being derivative in an interesting way?
Snob.

It's a pretty good haunted house story.
I did enjoy it - as you know. I'm not sure it warrants massive adulation, though. And there was too much wittering by the tattoo guy, no?

But one person saying they love it on QOTW does not count as massive adulation.
Most people haven't even heard of it. Longevity doesn't make a book good. People are still reading Robinson Crusoe 300 years later and it's shite. Ah wait, that'll be subjectivity again. Besides, I liked Johnny Truant's wittering.
