They will either amuse you a lot - or be a total turn off.

M. C. Beaton (Agatha Raisin and Hamish MacBeth series)
Sandra Dallas
Sara Gruen (Water for Elephants)
"Sarah's Key"
Jan Karon
Jill Conner Browne -- really irreverant, laugh out loud
Go to http://www.fantasticfiction.co.uk/ once you find an author you like to find others by him/her, or similar books by other authors. You'll never run out of books to read or listen to.

If you don't have one pick up a larger print New International Version (NIV) or another easy to red bible. Why- encouragement. I do story telling for our church and everything from history to drama to love sotries deciet murder redemption are right there.

I understand completely what you are going through. My grandma had Parkinson's Disease and I used to stay with her. I love to read however my life is a busy one so I like to read books that are easy to put down and pick up again. Here are my favorite authors:
Rosamund Pilcher, James Patterson, Nora Roberts, Susan Wiggs, Diana Gabaldon, Sara Donati, Kristen Hannah, J.A. Jance, David & Aimee Thurlo, Robyn Carr, Sheryl Woods, Sue Henry, Luanne Rice. Some of these are mystery, some are romance, some are historical fiction. Love these authors.
