James Paterson: crime writer or romantic novelist?

Post by Tianarenee3 »

Paterson is one of my ultimate favorite authors, but I'm conflicted of whether to read his more prominent thrillers or stick to my usual romantic fiction novels he writes. I know he is undoubtedly known for his crime books and not his romantic ones but they were initially the first ones I picked up at the library and Ive been hooked on then ever since. "Suzanne's diary for Nicholas" had me hysterically crying by the end and "breakfast at Tiffany's" epitomized what I want in a relationship but do I take that step and read his more aggressive side? I'm scared it will ruin the image I have of him as a romance writer; so I'm asking any Paterson fans (of both types of books!) what should I do?!
