[quote=Anonymous]OP I had a similar shift from literary fiction, which started to feel like hard work (it can be) and I got completely hooked with detective stories, particularly by Anthony Horowitz. I'd never read any crime / detective stuff before but was hooked. Part of the reason was some of these books really made me laugh out loud and that is just irreplaceable. And they are clever plots but not challenging mentally. I think its partly that you go to a book for a break from everything else and if it is "hard work" its not a break, unless you really want to punish yourself. Romance is similar, mostly this genre is feel good - it's not going to devastate you but give you an escape. [/quote]
