Question: What is a good romance/drama novel for a guy!?
I enjoy watching romantic comedy/drama films, so I thought I'd look into reading a nice novel on the same subject!. I look online for suggestions, but not knowing any authors, I don't really know where to look!. Some movies I enjoyed immensely were 50 First Dates, Garden State, A Walk to Remember, Sweet November, Knocked Up, Dan in Real Life, The Family Man, Blast from the Past, Alfie!. So if anyone has any novel recommendations on a good read relating somewhat to these films I'd greatly appreciate it!. I'm not looking for one of those strict romance novels the ladies read, something a guy would enjoy!. :)Www@QuestionHome@Com

You should try Elmore Leonard--he's great writer and many of his books have been made into movies--very cinematic and quick fun reads!. Try Out of Sight or Get Shorty!. There's dozens of them!. also Carl Hiaasen has some titles you might like--start with Skinny Dip!.

For more action stuff also try Lee Child--very good suspense thrillers!.

Good luck finding some books you'll like!
