Far be it from me to presume to tell someone that they have to like what I like. IMO not reading is not good, but it is not a moral or intellectual wrong which requires correcting.

Unless that person is illiterate, then it's a whole different story.

As always, my recommendation to someone who does not NORMALLY read as a pastime would be Watership Down by Richard Adams.

But there are also people who just never got into it or haven't made it a priority because they were busy with other things. For those people, a recommendation would have to be based on their interests, but I would think something relatively short so they aren't intimidated by the size and so they have a better chance of finishing it.
