Ok, so I've spent four years with my nose buried in the greats of English and American literature. Shakespeare, Austen, Nabokov, Shelley, Joyce, Woolf, Frost, Byron, Zola, Poe, blah blah blah... you name it, I've read it. And it's been wonderful.
BUT I would love to reward myself come September with some spectacularly trashy books as I haven't been able to read for pleasure for four years without feeling guilty. I don't like chick-lit in the sense of the Shopaholic series. And I'd like to read something new.
Here are some guilty pleasures: Stephen King, Sweet Valley High, Mallory Towers, Phillipa Gregory.
Thanks :D
