reading someone like Dave Barry or Art Buchwald (I'm reading him now) or any humorist would be good. They tell short stories that most people can relate to and it's usually in common English, similar to how people talk. Make sure the book isn't just a bunch of jokes, but actual editorial-like entries.
good luck!

If you can get hold of the Dark Materials trilogy by Phillip Pullman I can promise you a hugely entertaining read. The titles of the three books are Northern Lights, The Subtle Knife and The Amber Spyglass. There is also a film of the first book coming out soon starring Nicole Kidman.

The books are Twighlight New Moon Eclipse that is approximately this female, who falls in love with a vampire, that is rather sturdy. Then there is this different e book, noted as L.O.S.T that is approximately this queen of witches, who desires this "Shadow Walker" to defeat this Shadow Queen or something. Then, it appears that evidently the Shadow Queen is extremely the Shadow Walker's mom. Then, there is this e book noted as Mira, mirror i'm analyzing it maximum appropriate now. that is approximately this female who gets became right into a mirror, and endows magic. facilitates this undesirable peasant female stay a lie twisted in with lies and ask your self and love. It has a mix of all the fairy memories

Cry to heaven by Anne Rice....Spartacus by Howard Fast(outlawed during the Mccarthy era).....The Count of Monte Cristo by Alexander Dumas, who also wrote the Three Musketeers & The man in the iron mask.....The Thornbirds by Colleen McCullough...brilliant book.....The Grapes of Wrath by John Steinbeck (An amazing classic) & The Good Earth by Pearl Buck, lastly A Tree Grows in Brooklyn by betty Smith.
There, many classics and page turners for you!!! I have read all of these and in some cases multiple times!!! I really hope that this helps you!!! Spartacus will blow your mind. It had to be released in England as the McCarthy era had Howard fast black balled when it was written.
I hope that you read Cry to heaven by Anne Rice...it is NOT about vampires, but about the Italian Castrati, thus it is truth intermixed with fiction, rather historical fiction....
Happy reading!!!!! I gave y usome of my top faves here!!
Thanks,
Lioncourt

Do you like fantasy? Try C.S. Lewis, "The Lion, The Witch and The Wardrobe"
Do you like travelogs? Try "Riding the Iron Rooster" by Paul Theroux
Do you like mystery? Try anything by Agatha Christie
Animal stories? Try "All Creatures Great and Small" by James Herriot
