Books suggestions
Any good reads except for porn? I liked kite runner, a million little pieces, a thousand splendid suns, dan brown's books, stuff like that if it helps. Not into (auto)biographies or stuff or books about i-love-him-and-he-loves-me-but-lets-use-a-year-to-see-if-we-should-date kind of books.

Anything by Terry Pratchett. I'd suggest on starting on something like Guards Guards! first and see how you like it from there. The Dune series is a good one as well.
Good Omens (by Niel Gaimen and Terry Pratchett) is a great book about the end of the world and how a little boy is to blame.

Gods Behaving Badly - Marie Phillips.
Easy read, but cool idea; I burned through it in a day and a half.
