Lucky you, Angela! I just got back from the lake...where I read four books in the space of 72 hours and three of them were great. And, so, without further ado, I recommend:
1) Since I know you're on a non-fiction kick, as am I - "Inside the Olympics" by Dick Pound. He's Canadian, so you might have trouble getting your hands on it, but it's basically a series of essays on various Olympic issues by the ultimate insider...
2) the Stephanie Plum series by Janet Evanovich...My sister has been trying to get me to read these for a year, and I finally did this weekend. I'm now addicted. I read the first two this weekend (One for the Money and Two for the Dough) and they were both unputdownable (is that a word? It is now!)
Because you requested five, here are some old faves of mine:
3) Ride the Wind by Lucia St. Clair Robson
4) Lady of the Forest by Jennifer Roberson
5) And, since you've been disappointed by Star Wars this week, why not some GOOD star wars? The Heir to the Empire trilogy by Timothy Zahn are EVERYTHING Star Wars should be. I couldn't put them down, and they were what inspired the rebirth of my love for the idea of Star Wars. A lot of the Star Wars books are crapity crap, but these ones are brilliant.
