I just read "Yes Man", by Danny Wallace.
It's easy to read, quick, and you laugh a lot.
It's a good break.

Hi there. I have a new medieval fantasy book out that you might like. It has received excellent reviews in the national media and is being considered for a movie deal.
The title is THE BLACKGLOOM BOUNTY. It's 445 pages of action, adventure, magic, mystery and mayhem. If you like Conan or Harry Potter books, this should be a book you'll like. Oh, and the main characters are mostly teenagers, too!
If you'd like to try it out, I'll send you a FREE, 4 chapter eBook demo if you email me at FiveStarAuthor@aol.com. That way, you can see if you like the story or not without spending a dime. Cool huh?
Good luck, whatever you decide to read!

This recommendation is neither a science fiction, nor a novel of any kind. It is an opportunity that is open to anyone willing to cooperate with righteous guidelines, to share life with others doing the same:
"Look! I Am Making All Things New"

Why You Can Trust the Bible

The Bible is not science fiction, as some claim. It holds both the promise of a future paradise for obedient mankind, and the instructions we need to follow in order to benefit from this grand opportunity. Learning more is only a click away ...

These are all novels that experience stayed with me one way or the other. Some simply on account that they had been lovely, a few on account that they had been awful. There's insanity and sweetness and a few magical realism in conjunction with a little bit philosophy and a few darkish factors. A few of them simply made me seem on the international an extra manner. Galore via Michael Crummey Atonement via Ian McEwan Cloud Atlas via David Mitchell Infinite Jest via David FOster Wallace Absurdistan via Gary Shteyngart The Elegance of the Hedgehog via Muriel Barbery American Psycho via Bret Easton Ellis Life After Life via Kate Atkinson Lost Memory of Skin via Russell Banks The Night Birds via Thomas Maltman We Need to Talk approximately Kevin via Lionel Shriver Replay via Ken Grimwood The Diving Bell and the Butterfly via Jean Dominique Bauby Caucasia via Danzy Senna Balzac and the Little Chinese Seamstress via Dai Sijie The Last Brother via Nathacha Appanah Hope it is helping :)

Dresden file book series by Jim Butcher.There are 8 books in the series beginning with stormfront. t narrates the story of Harry Dresden,chicago's only professional wizard.He stands between the general population who is ignorant about the supernatural world and the monsters-vampires,werewolves,fey.He is aided by Bob,a talking skull.Karrin Murphy-a police officer and Thomas-a white court vampire.
If you like duels and intergue try Scaramouche by Rafael Sabatini.Its about Andre-Louis an illegitimate young lawyer who swears a vendetta against the noble man Marquis de La Tour d'Azyr who killed his friend.Its set in the days before and during the French Revolution.
If you like fantasy try the Dragon Jousters series by Mercedes
Lackey.The first book 'Joust', is about Vetch a young serf who is
rescued by a Dragon Jouster from his cruel master.He becomes a Dragon boy(one who takes care of dragons).Later he secretly hatches his own dragon.The later two books are about how he escapes to his native Alta and how the war between Alta and Tia ends.The setting reminds you of Ancient Egypt.
Mercedes Lackey's Take a Thief is the tale of Skif, a young orphan reminiscent of Oliver Twist, making his way in the knock-and-tumble neighborhood between two of Haven's outermost walls. Skif is intelligent, good-hearted and creative enough to forage up three meals a day in a place where food is scarce and kindness almost unheard of. After a chain of events leave him homeless, Skif lands in the lair of Bazie, an Faginish ex-mercenary who trains thieves...until he is "Chosen" by one of Valdemar's magical horses and becomes a Herald serving the Queen.

Read something by Robert B Parker or Janet Evanovich. These 2 write series, so you can enjoy them for a long time. Or read any Jackie Collins for a fat juicy scandal book!
