Feist is a good one. Jessie Send a noteboard - 18/04/2011 03:32:51 PM
You know, when you don't want to read anything challenging, just something comfortable and lovely.


I also enjoy the odd Marian Keyes book. She's funny, touching and her characters are hilarious women.

BUT, really! Paulo Coelho. The Alchemist. The Zahir. The Witch of Portobello. Veronika Decides to Die. I Saw Down By The River Piedra and Wept. Brida. They're all relatively short and very quick to read, but with depth.

David Nicholl's One Day is heartbreaking and lovely.

Harry Potter, always.

The Hunger Games are interesting, fun and easy.

I'm reading Garth Nix's Lirael. It's delightful, original and easy.

when you see only the darkness, know the light will soon return
