I'm with you I have always preferred to read a great Horror/Mystery/Fantasy novel, rather than some book that would make my head hurt. My favorites are of course Stephen King (currently reading Dark Tower VII & Bag of Bones is my favorite), Dean Koontz ( I loved Odd Thomas and The Fear Nothing/Seize the Night books), Michael Chrichton (liked Jurrasic Park and Timeline) and the likes...
Lately I have been getting back into fantasy novels which I kinda got away from since I got outta high school. I just finished the Amber Chronicles by Roger Zelzanzy. I have also been getting into Alternative History/Universe books.
I have been reading SK since I was in middle school and have reread every book he has written at least once many over and over. They are a fast and enjoyable read. I always have a spare paperback of some SK book in the car incase I finish reading whatever I am into at the time, its right there in my emergency kit.. jumper cables, flashlight and yep that beat up copy of IT or Tommyknockers!
