Try the "Stephanie Plum" books from Janet Evanovitch. Good beach reading.

This is difficult to answer without having at least some idea of what you like. This is good http://www.interleaves.org/~rteeter/grtother.html#great , especially the Harvard Classics list. Almost all of the classics are classics for one reason - they are really good, even those from a genre that you wouldn't normally enjoy. The only difficulty is choosing one that isn't *too* difficult. Fortunately, almost all of these are available free online, so you can read a chapter and decide if it's the book you want.
I hope this helps.

I find Jennifer Cruise books to be extremely entertaining. They are funny ( i actually laugh out loud ) and not over the top romantic. I hate mushy stories. They are fast paced. I never get bored reading them and I always wish they were longer. I also like Jodi Piccoult. Her books are very touching. Tess Geritson writes some good medical thrillers and Nicholas Sparks books are fantastic as well. I love to read... can you tell??? :)
