Thanks for replying, Gene! I was just curious since it always amazes me that there are wonderful male authors such as Nicholas Sparks who can write such sensitive and eloquent romance stories like The Notebook or incredibly gifted female authors like JK Rowling who can write such magically, epic adventures like the Harry Potter series. In the beginning, I assumed JK Rowling was a man! Maybe the opposite genders aren't so opposite after all?

Does anyone have a favorite book where it surprised them to learn the gender of the author?
