Book Suggestions

When I need to drive any distance—short or long—I would rather listen to an audiobook than music. Don’t get me wrong, I enjoy music and have a iPod that has been a life saver at work sometimes. But for driving, I’d rather “read” and enjoy a good book.

And that brings me to my question: What book recommendations do you have?

I’ve read a number of Dean Koontz books and enjoy the suspense that he creates. But I like non-fiction as well as fiction. Love mysteries, comedies, and romance, but above all, a great story in any genre is essential. I use electronic services to get my books in mp3 format, and I need help finding books. What key words should I be using? If you don't know what to search for, it's difficult to conduct a search. =:O)

My favorite topic, of course, is dogs and anything about dog training, dog learning, and dog psychology. I own all the James Herriott books; they are my absolute favorites. I drag them out again and again, like favorite slippers, worn and comfortable. You know what’s coming but still laugh and cry at the same places.

I need some new books for the upcoming agility season. When I’m driving to a trial at 4 a.m., I want a good story to make the trip fun.

Thanks for any suggestions…
