I like reading novels just as much as I like watching movies.  Reading a book just takes longer watching a movie.  I enjoy novels because of the stories and characters.  I usually read Michael Crichton and John Grisham novels for fun, otherwise, I try to read other "famous" or "notable" novels.

I have compiled a list of the novels that I would recommend a friend.  Personally, I do not think I am well read, meaning that I do not read lots of books.  I believe that we should read novels to refresh one's vocabulary of the English language.  Currently, I am reading a novel, and I have a couple of more that I would like to read.  Although, suggestions are always welcome!
