I need some book suggestions. Not political!

[OffWithTheirHeads]

I read a book about every three days. I'm going to Costa Rica for two weeks and I'm told that books are very expensive there so I need to take some with me. I eat, sleep, drink, breath politics. Air America is on 24 / 7. If I'm on the puter, D.U. is up. I need a brake from the constant political angst.

I like stuff like Ludlum, Follett, Patterson but have read almost everything by them and others. I need some new authors, some good writers. Have you read anything really wonderful that I might consider? Tell me about it please Any topic, fact or fiction, just NO politics.

Thanks for your time. I go book shopping Monday and leave Tuesday.
