Hi Pawan, nice to meet you! I am doing the slow-read of "War and Peace" with Simon Haisell, and I just picked up "The Alchemist" from the library but haven't started it yet. My favorite books of all time are "The Witching Hour" by Anne Rice, and all of Khaled Hosseini's books but especially "And the Mountains Echoed". What about you?

If you liked the Witching Hour, there's a series: The Witching Hour, Lasher, and Taltos. It's been a long time since I read those, but I remember them being pretty good. I liked Interview with the Vampire and The Vampire Lestat. She also wrote a book called Cry to Heaven about the castrati, which was good and very interesting. One of the things I really like about her books is that even though they're fiction, they're very well researched. She also wrote some erotica under the pen name, Anne Rampling. I've not read any of those.
I did read Lasher and Taltos, and will add the others to my TBR list! Yes, her writing is very thorough and detailed. My favorite parts of Witching Hour are when she goes back in time for centuries and you really get a feel for what life was like. Thank you!

I love Anne Rice. I live in New Orleans, so I had the pleasure of meeting her several times.
Oh, I am green with envy! I actually haven't read many of her other books. Which ones do you recommend? New Orleans is on my bucket list.
