Maybe not all light, beach reading, but page-turners, nonetheless:
Fave all-time book: Maya Angelou's autobiography in four books: "I Know Why the Caged Bird Sings"; "Gather Together in My Name"; "Singin' and Swingin' and Gettin' Merry Like Christmas"; and "The Heart of a Woman:.
Best book read lately: Jeannette Walls: "Half Broke Horses".
Book everyone should read: There are so many, but one I keep going back to every few years is The Catcher in the Rye by J.D. Salinger. Also Margaret Cezair-Thomson's "The True History of Paradise".
A great beach read would be "A Walk in the Woods" by Bill Bryson - love his humor.
