I love Clive Cussler novels for vacationing and such. Each one is horribly formulaic but I find they're good in that they make good stories without making one strain one's thinking too much at all and they keep you entertained. Keeping all this in mind I think they may be a little more guy oriented though.

These titles all seem so intense... I read very light stuff in comparison... like romance books, haha. I figure I get enough stuff that's hard for me to pay attention to for school.
One of my favorite books ever is called Prep, by Curtis Sittenfeld. It's actually not a romance...haha. Unless you count high school age students that have sex and aren't actually together to be romance.

Has anyone ever read One Hundred Years of Solitude? I think it's by Gabriel Marquez or something like that... I have to read it for class and blaaahh... It's evil!
