Fiction, please. Anything that's not Sci-Fi or courtroom related. Other than that, I'm game. As it stands, I've read nost everything from guys like John Irving, Carl Hiaasen, Jonothan Tropper, Larry McMurtry, and Chad Klutgen.
Try out Barbara Kingsolver. I really like Prodigal Summer, then I'd move to Poisonwood Bible. If you like Hiaasen, you might like Kurt Vonnegut, though it borders on sci-fi, sort of.
