Five Novels, and Their Authors, That Influenced Me

“I set out to write a book that I would love to read myself: a compelling love story and thriller, full of sex and violence, and short punchy chapters that each end with a surprise – inviting the reader to keep turning page well into the night.”  This quote has been pulled directly from my
