I don't know if you like murder/mysteries, but if so you should definitely check out Naked In Death, the first of a (long) series written by JD Robb. She's a pseudonym for Nora Roberts who writes ... we'll call them "bodice rippers," and while there is a bit of bodice ripping in the ...In Death series, it's not all "Reginald's quivering member" rubbish. Also, it's murder mysteries set in the future so you really can't lose. I enjoy these when I'm looking for brain candy.
