Absolutely third Audrey Niffenegger's "The Time Traveler's Wife", absolutely my favorite book.

I always bring a copy of Jane Austen's "Pride and Prejudice"...hopeless i know but i do love it.
I am hooked on JR Ward's Black Dagger Brotherhood! Vampires but good light reads.  Laurell K. Hamilton, Sherrylin Kenyon same vein. 

The Devil Wears Prada! The book was wonderful if you've only watched the movie check out the book.
Gypsie - Stiff is in my pile of "to be read", I'll promote it up the list.

Alabama - I haven't read that one yet, but Elizabeth Gilbert wrote a novel called Stern Men, which I really enjoyed and a nonfiction/biography, The Last American Man, which is really interesting.   I really like her.
Looks like no one has replied in awhile, but I couldn't resist adding a few suggestions. Didn't see any sci-fi...and I am a sci-fi book freak! Here are just a few great books:

Michael Crichton is my favorite author, so I would recommend Sphere or Timeline.

Also love Peter Hamilton. The Night's Dawn series is excellent (6 books) as well as the Pandora's Star series (2 books).

Just finished a book by Stephen Baxter, entitled Ring. Very bizarre, hardcore scifi - and really good! :)

I could go on and on but the last one I'll mention is the Riverworld series by Philip Jose Farmer (To Your Scattered Bodies Go, The Fabulous Riverboat, etc)
It's ok Livs1224...I think I have Pride and Prejudice memorized by now :)

ashalee - there are a ton of great suggestions in another thread that was out pretty recently http://www.calorie-count.com/forums/post/5999 5.html
