WOW I was seriously going to start a book recommendation thread today!
I love reading! I read about 10 books a week...granted they are not heady, or smart...they are just fun I must be entertained to read! SO as for recommendations and favorite genre well its just fiction, I love supernatural fiction most, but fiction in general.
A couple of my personal favorites!
Crooked Little Vein by Warren Ellis - This is sort of an all around awesome PI type thriller. I picked this book up in the new releases section at my local Barns and Noble, I read the back and thought I could take it or leave it. THen I read the first line...I burst out into a full out gut busting laugh till I cried!!! I bought the book instantly after several heated looks from the rest of the quiet store!
"I woke this morning to a rat taking a piss in my coffee cup." From there it just gets better and better, I laughed so hard through this book, it took me an extra day just to finish it!
If you could see my not - Cecilia Ahern - This book has idealist dream written all over it...Basically its about a stoic, middle aged shell of a woman who sees and falls for an imaginary friend. He teaches her how to see the world in color again, to find passion, love, and her inner child.
On the supernatual side my current favorite is
Undead and unwed by Mary Janice Davidson - This is a story about a woman who on her 30th birthday looses her job, her cat runs away, and she dies. Only to wake up two days later wearing a kmart suit and payless shoes (did I mentions shes a bit materialistic) She is livid knowing what her step monster (mother) dressed her in for her own funeral and sets off to find her prada! And subsequently try to kill her self...again. Only to learn that shes a vampire...and when she is found by the local horde of vamps she laughes in their faces and calls them cliche! Another one I busted a gut through the whole story!
