Chrichton is not a guilty pleasure. Jurrassic Park was one of those books I rushed home to read and was depressed when it was over.

The Tiffany Aching series by Terry Pratchett (found in the YA section) is a guilty pleasure.

Beauty's Release/Punishment/etc. by Anne Rice (Naughty, so naughty)

The Harry Potter series.

The CS Lewis series starting with The Lion, The Witch and ...

I audiobooked the first Twilight, but realized I am not the target demographic so the romance did not grab me.

I have the next Hunger Games audio book lined up. Another YA but with more depth than Twilight because of the society background.

Thanks to the AMC series "Walking Dead" I am planning to read the 40+ "graphic adult novels" (aka comic books).

Books are like food. Sometimes you spend $$$ for exotic, subtle flavors in wine, meat and veggies. And other times a good Togo's sandwitch or Carls Jr burger hits the spot. I dont limit my pallet nor my bookshelf. (Probably why I am constantly dieting and paying for storage space for cases of old paperbacks).
