If you're into graphic novels/comics you may enjoy "Y The Last Man". Cool idea and plenty of reading.

The Shining. He bashes his wife with a croquet mallet. 'nuff said.

That's never actually said in the book. A lot of things are different, actually...

If you haven't already you should give And Then There Were None a try.

For people who like fantasy and swordfights and magic and all that good stuff, check out Guildwars: Ghosts of Ascalon, really good book

Try Agathe Christie's books. She writes some good mystery.

I recently finished up Nineteen Eighty-Four by George Orwell and it was a great read. Enjoyed it from start to finish.

Ugh, I'm reading this in English this semester. Its theme and intro are quite promising but not enough action in the beginning to grab my attention.
Hey, I'm just a kid.

If you like psychological thrillers (mystery included), try Dennis Lehane's Shutter Island. I'm not sure if the movie's any good, but I really liked the book.
I also grew up reading the Hardy Boys series, which satisfied plenty of my book projects.
On the other hand, if you don't mind stomaching some sci-fi mysteries, try Richard Preston's The Cobra Event or Douglas Preston and Lincoln Child's Mount Dragon. They're not really as much fantasy sci-fi as they are mysteries, so you'll probably enjoy them more than a Star Wars spinoff.

I really liked And Then There Were None. Couldn't put it down till I read the entire dang thing.

I thought it was awkward how the director of the movie tried to illustrate that scene with the bear dude and the blow job. Quite a random scene, but pretty funny.

The book was so good, the movie was a ball of *chocolate cookies*.

Also forgot to mention A Brave New World by Alodus Huxley, it's along the same lines as Nineteen Eighty-Four.
