Brilliant minds amaze me

Do you ever look at someone and wonder if their elevator goes to the top? Or have a conversation with someone and realize their intelligence is far superior than your own? I do not consider myself really smart, HS education at a not so great school, but I strive to read and learn more all the time.
The three photos are some of my favorite authors and to me their minds are genius, the ideas they come up with and pen into stories is incredible.
There are many more I enjoy also, Anne Rice was one, she was amazing and kind of psycho at the same time ðŸ¤ª

I started reading a Stephen King book and put it down quickly, I decided I'd rather not have nightmares in my sleep, thank you very much!

@Txbutterfly :
Three of my favorites. I'm not a fan a horror fiction per se and consider Koontz thriller for the most part, but I've read everything King has written simply because I love the way he writes. He's phenomenal and I own many of his books.

@luannski :
That's why he is king if psycho thrillers!!! He gets in your head ðŸ¤ª I prefer Koontz over king, but enjoy them both.
Grisham used to be a senator and has a law degree, probably why most of his stuff has courtroom drama.

@Txbutterfly :
My Mom loved Koontz- I could never quite get into him. I'm a huge Grisham fan- just finished a Time for Mercy. The Jake Bergance series were page burners!! Also love Jeffrey Archer- just finished A Matter of Honor.
Love Stephen King too. More when I was younger. I need to start back up on him
