Recommending books ?

[jackthehat]

I'm going to be housebound for the next few weeks........and can read without interruption, or guilt, or expectation that I ought to be doing 'something else'.

So, I shall be heading off to Waterstones soon.

Can you provide me with a list of books I ought to consider buying ?
A brief synopsis would also be useful.

Thankyou, matey-peeps :o)

The Millenium Trilogy by Stieg Larsson.I readit recently and couldn't put it down.The first book is about a journalist and a hacker investigating a girl's disappearance 40 years before.The second two see the hacker accused of a crime and the investigation.
Something else I always recommend is Stan Barstow's The Vic Brown Trilogy which starts with A Kind Of Loving.It starts in the 1950s and is the story of Vic Brown,his love life,and how he discovers what he wants from life.Timeless.
