Based on when you make your book list, look at the top 100 authors, and pick a book to read from one of those authors, but here’s the catch – it needs to be an author new to you…one of the most popular authors, yet you’ve never read them before. http://www.amazon.com/author-rankI noticed that Stephen King is on this list, and I haven't read any of his before so I will check out what's available from this author. My son is a baseball player so I've picked The girl who loved Tom Gordon
