For a good action thriller I'd suggest Matthew Reilly's Scarecrow.

Otherwise something like The Great Gatsby, its much better read than watched on the big screen.

Hi. I'll second Gatsby.

I also enjoyed Crime and Punishment. I tell people all the time it's not that difficult of a read. The hardest part is that in Russia a person/character can have three or four names, sometimes totally unrelated to each other. But it's a great read and I, for one, enjoyed the epilogue, which many critics dismiss.

As for a "beach read" I just finished Odd Thomas by Dean Koontz. Ending is seriously gripping.

Good Luck,
John

I just recently finished reading Before I Go to Sleep by S.J. Watson. I definitely recommend it. The twist catches you by surprise. It is being made into a movie.
