I haven't read a book in 10 years

I really want to get into a book. I want to get drawn into it like I'm watching a movie. I remember reading books in my teens where I didn't even realise I was turning the pages. Please can anyone recommend a book that can grab me like this?! Genre wise, I think a good detective/action/adventure book would be good. Like I say I'm not a massive reader and I'm probably a bit sleep deprived so not something that will take a lot of brain power to keep up. Please help me get back into books!!

new author, I hope she writes more soon as I have really enjoyed her debut novel. Very easy going and the story is very real and down to earth.

The Jackson Brodie books by Kate Atkinson will reel you in...

That's a brilliant suggestion. If I start one of those, I literally find it hard to put down.

I've just come back to this thread and have started this book... Really enjoying it!

Great thread. Love Rebus here too. Got back into Agatha Christie recently and much easier reads now than I remember, maybe mothering increases your tolerance of certain book genres!
