Depends on your taste,
I like horrors, kinky and soppy stories so i like most.
Try a horror book by steven king if you can get it, its called
"The beast within"
The book is about 50 times better than the film.

Alternatively you could try reading online from something like Stories Online.
http://storiesonline.net/home.php
I have been reading things off here for years, and there is quite a range.
The quality varies but if you look to the list of top scores you will find some good stuff quickly.
Have fun.
Ps It’s free unless you want a premium account which is worth it if you read as much as me. LOL

Personally i would recommend Karin Slaughter, Kathy Reichs or John Grisham.
Every one of them always delivers a very good read.
But, the best book i have read recently was called "Infected" by Scott Sigler.....Very gripping. x |

Try any of the Conn Iggulden 'Emperor' books - they're a fascinating read about the life & times of Julius Caesar told from a narrative perspective but based in fact never-the-less.
There are four books in the series that need to be read in order:
1) Emperor - The Gates of Rome
2) Emperor - The Death of Kings
3) Emperor - The Field of Swords
4) Emperor - The Gods of War
Iggulden has also written a series of books about Genghis Khan, from his childhood to leader on the Mongols that unified China, another fascinating insight into one the world's greatest warriors.
There are three books in this series and, again, need to be read in the following order:
1) Wolf of the Plains
2) Lords of the Bow
3) Bones of the Hills

It's by Mitch Albom and is about Eddie, a fairground maintenance man and the story begins on his 83rd birthday - his last day on Earth. He is met in heaven by five people from his past who help him to understand what led him to arrive in heaven on the day he did.
Bit of a tear-jerker at the end with his 5th person, watch out for it. |

The best one that springs immediately to mind may take a little over a week to read, but it'll be well worth it. There are many chapters, many hidden meanings but it's good.
I recommend you to start at Genesis and work your way through to Revelations... |
