I recommend Angels and Demons by Dan Brown. Not because it's mainstream, but I've read a LOT of books and this one is really one of the shooting stars. If it became a movies, it'd be much better than Da Vinci Code.

You would absolutely love the women's murder club books by James Patterson. It is a series and they just get better and better go to James Patterson'swebsite and read some stuff from the books and see if you like it. James Patterson is all I read! He is great!

Eats, Shoots and Leaves by Lynne Truss. Everybody should read it. It's hilarious, it's a quick read, and you learn a lot about punctuation.

A great book to read that i have read numerous times is,

The lovely bones by alice sebold

The Lovely Bones is a 2002 novel by Alice Sebold. It is the story of a teenage girl who, after being brutally raped and murdered, watches from heaven as her family and friends go on with their lives, while she herself comes to terms with her own death. The novel received a great deal of critical praise and became an instant bestseller.

A film adaptation of the novel is currently in production and is being directed by Peter Jackson, who personally purchased the rights.
