    Depends on what you're into:

    Vince Flynn series for those that enjoy the spy/action hero genre
    Terry Goodkind if you're looking for preachy humanism theory(think Ayn Rand), the series is the Sword of Truth
    The Iron Druid series 5 books so far, by Kevin Hearne for agnostics
    John Conroe's Demon Accords series for Urban Fantasy, and his standalone novel, "Black Frost"
    The Prey series by John Sandford is excellent as well as the Kidd novels, same author
    Michael Connelly's Harry Bosch series for police procedurals

    These are a few of my favorite things....:drinker:

    Confessions of a Shopaholic series.

    The No. 1 Ladies Detective Agency

    Phillip Pullman's His Dark Materials Trilogy

    I have heard that the Hunger Games trilogy is great too, but haven't had a chance to pick it up yet.

    A Song of Ice and Fire - 5 books out of 7 completed.

    You may know it as "Game of Thrones" (book 1)

    On my last cruise our favorite bartender suggested this. So far, I have heard to a of good stuff about it. It's on my list next. I did start watching the tv series - if it's half as good as the series I'll be happy (and I hear its better).

    Right now I am re-reading then finishing the Dark Tower series by Stephen King - awesome.

    I also read 50 Shades trilogy on my last cruise - not impressed.
    The Hunger Games was ok. Really liked the first book, second less and not a fan of the last.

    Pillars of the Earth is one of my favorite books. I know I read another in the series but don't really remember.

    I'm about to go on a 3 night bahamas cruise, and should be getting a Kindle Fire in the mail anyday... Any suggestions of a good book series to put on it for the trip?

    Dresden Files - Jim Butcher (urban fantasy)
    Parasol Protectorate - Gail Carriger (steampunk)
    Anita Blake, Vampire Hunter or Merry Gentry, Faerie Princess - Laurell K Hamilton (urban fantasy and way fun fantasy material :))
    Merrily Watkins - Phil Rickman (mystery set in Wales)
    Pendergast novels - Douglas Preston/Lincoln Child (mystery)

    not sure what you're favorite genre is...

    Love this!

    I agree with the above comments about Janet Evanovich's Stephanie Plum books (I've read all 19), Stieg Larson's Girl With the Dragon Tattoo, The Hunger Games, and James Patterson's Alex Cross novels.
