I keep thinking I'll enjoy suspense novels, and sometimes I do. I've read about 20 Dick Francis novels.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
I do try not to spend much time reading in the suspense genre.
I don't very often read novels.
Books in general are great, but I'm a fiction lover, and I will continue to do it.
I'm a bit more of a suspense reader on the adult side, but my favorites were the ones I grew up reading.
I have 20 or 30 books completely plotted out in my mind - mysteries, thrillers, horror, romance, science fiction. You name it.
I think the best fiction is a form of psychological suspense, even though I don't really write in that idiom.
Whether labeled as such or not, I think every book I've ever written has been, more or less, a romantic suspense. I have always put tremendous effort into making each book a page turner: The harder it is for the reader to put it down, the better I've done my job.
Even though I got a late start, first publishing an essay when I was 50 years old, I've since written eight suspense novels.
I read what I like to write: romantic suspense. I also love thrillers and novels of suspense, but I can't handle extreme violence and torture.
I don't read a great deal of fiction, to my shame, other than the classics.
