I recommend the Alanna series by Tamora Pierce, available in the YA section. That’s my favorite mindless adventure + magic + female hero reading these days.

You’re one up on me, I went from books straight to TV.

the closest I get to a book now-a-days is a magazine – it can be read in short intervals

Great post! I’ve had the same phenomenon in my life. At the end of the day (which is the first and only opportunity to pick up a book for anyone over 3), the last thing I want to do is have to think hard about what I’m reading. I want to escape to another world (not that mine is in any way unpleasant – just exhausting) or laugh. So I’m either left with Young Adult Fiction or my other vice…British Women’s Fiction. How naughty.

You can have free access to my attic. My prized YA library from my classroom is hidden in boxes, waiting for a reader to adore it. No late fees.
