Oh, also!

It's not everyone's cup of tea, but I definitely suggest at LEAST trying a manga series. I can personally suggest Bleach and InuYasha. They're pretty easy reads, I can normally finish one a day, if I want. They also have a little of everything... Humor, action, fantasy, horror, sometimes sci-fi, drama, mystery. All in one series.

Plus, if you read a manga you really enjoy, you can often mind the anime on TV/YouTube/Hulu. ^_^

Thanks for the suggestion! I will look into it... I don't know that I am familiar with that author. Always good to try a new writer!
