Tim Dorsey's novels are a real treat to read. One part friendly serial killer, one part Florida trivia & local legends, two parts wacky craziness. "Florida Roadkill" is the start of the stories; but I started with "Cadilac Beach" and quickly got into the groove.
Janet Evanovich's Stephanie Plum novels are another good choice. Stephanie Plum is an out-of-work department store buyer who turns to bounty hunting to make ends meet. "One For The Money" introduces the main characters and gives you the background needed. Unfortunately, it also is the heaviest in tone and mood. The rest of the series is much lighter and a lot more fun.

Anything by Edgar Allen Poe is pretty good.
Try the Vampire Kisses series. I love them.
Artemis Fowl books very good.
Anne Rice's Vampire Chronicles books should keep you busy.

Heart Shaped Box by Joe Hill. Hill is Stephen King's son and the apple doesn't fall far from the tree. Its a Ghost story that will keep you reading until it's finished.
