Which authors' success is a complete mystery to you?

Tony Parsons

Jodi Picoult

Obviously I meant I dont like her books.

Has anyone mentioned 'Angelology' yet? Dannielle Trussoni I think.
Hard to imagine how it EVER got published.

Page one - main character gets dressed, then couple of paras later, presumably forgetting she got dressed, gets dressed again . . .

That sets the tone really.

It's sold masses and is now to be a film.

Dan Brown, JK Rowling
Any famous person who has written about How To... eat/have a baby/exercise/clean a house... (obviously, not a famous chef who has written about cookery!).
My dad hated Enid Blyton with a passion
