What books have you read and enjoyed? Has anyone read the Twilight series by Stephenie Myer? I realize that the authors and books that I have mentioned aren't classics. They're more like "candy" - easy to read and sometimes just plain entertainment; but I think that's okay. It's sometimes nice to settle into bed early with something that's easy on the brain after a hard day of motherhood. :)

Reading
I LOVE reading, and I have to admit that maybe my favorite genre is plain ole' fiction. But, I'm always at a loss for what to look for in the library, because, chances are, if I just pick a random book off the shelf, it will be trash - on many levels. One author that my brother got me into is Vince Flynn - he's from the Minneapolis area, which makes him more interesting to me. I've also enjoyed some of P.J. Tracy's books (one of which is also set in Minneapolis - even my old neighborhood!). Both of these authors run along the psychological thriller line.

I haven't read a lot lately, but enjoy it as well. For awhile my favorite series was Amelia Peabody by Elizabeth Peters.
I read the Cat Who series...for awhile, but like you said about some other books these were "candy" reading for me.
Read the No 1 Ladies Detective Agency. Those were good. And clean.
and a "million" other books.
Now, I'm trying to read Don Quixote. Yikes. A little heavy.
