I would recommend any of the Neil Gaiman books, very readable and fascinating. For shorter reads go with Good Omens, Coraline, Neverwhere, Stardust and for a longer read American Gods (my fav).

If you like horror Stephen King is incredibly easy to get into.

Oh yeah, Good Omens is great!

Neverwhere was really fun; I read it a long time ago but still think about it from time to time.

If you can access it the BBC created a neverwhere radio play with James McAvoy and Natalie Dormer. I think it's available on audible if it's not on the BBC (or you can't access it there).
