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.

For the classics
the reverse of normal thinking about film adaptation is true.
Good books are ruined or at least partialy mauled by TV/film adaptaion, but in the case of Dickens (and the others) they make good TV/films because the stories & characters really are good just obscured with overblown narrative
