Looking for new books to read as I am preparing to head out on a much needed vacation and want to dig into some good reading. Can be fiction or nonfiction, just so long as it hooked you and made you want to keep reading and reading until the end.

Since his work hasn't been mentioned yet:
Any of the Discworld Novels by Sir Terry Pratchett. My personal favorites are the ones following the Wizzard Rincewind. But, I'm a sucker for the reluctant hero style story. These start with the the novel The Colour of Magic. One of the more popular series within Discworld are the books which follow Sam Vimes. They play on the Noir genre and start with the novel Guards! Guards!. There are several other threads within the Discworld which can be followed independently, though they all do tend intersect from time to time.

I'm finishing up book #15 - Men at Arms.

I'm going to be so sad when I finish. Sam Vimes is in this one.

I can't wait to hear from Rincewind again.
