Neverwhere, or American Gods, by Neil Gaiman.
Mind Hacks, by Tom Stafford and Matt Webb.
Night Watch, Thief Of Time, or Jingo, by Terry Pratchett.

Check out The Wrath of God by Jack Higgins. The title sounds religious but the book is not. It is an exciting page turner that will keep you guessing.

Anything by John Grisham is good for adventurous, legal stuff. Sexy romance and passion is found by Sandra Brown. If you are wanting a heartwarming story read Old Yeller.

Hinds' Feet On High Places by Hannah Hurnard, an allegory dramatizing the journey each of us must take before we can learn the secret of living life in "high places".
Enjoy!
