Looking for something different to read.
I'm looking for something completely different to read at night before I go to bed and I'm hoping I can get some good recommendations in here. I read a lot but my problem is that its always work/career related, science and engineering journals, biography and self-help books . This time I want to find something that would help me relax at night and get my head off work and off my normal train of tough. I really don't mind if its non-fiction or fiction. Also English is not my first language so I would prefer something that is easy to ready (still want it in English though).
A bit about my self (hopefully this way I can get something that would interest me more): I'm 28 years old from Mexico but currently living in Texas, USA. I'm a mechanical engineer and a very outdoor/active person.
Thanks for taking the time,
Alejandro

If you like mysteries, I would recommend any book by Dan Brown. His books have authentic protagonists and there are so many puzzles and twists to his stories that will keep your brain too busy to think about work. It's also educational because there is so much historical content in them as well.
Do you like romance novels? I recommend Jenny Han. There's also TONS of other great romance novelists!
Do you like supernatural thrillers? The book of the month, Raven Peak by Lincoln Cole is very popular right now. You should check it out. It's a series so that will keep you busy for a while.
In general, I just think you should look for a good fiction. Whenever I'm stressed or want to escape my own head, I pick up a book so I can get into some one elses.
Hope you find what you're looking for and I hope I helped!
