Have you read The Giver? Then there are 3 books that follow. I read a book a day. They are young adult fiction but I enjoyed them.

Great book. Deep, quick read, and has a pretty powerful feel to it.

I thought The Storied Life of A.J. Fikry was a really good story, and an easy read as well.

I liked it a lot, after I got partway in. But I wouldn’t call it fast-paced. In fact, I put it down initially because I couldn’t get into it. (Unusual for me.)

Anything by James Patterson is usually a fast paced, easy read. I particularly like When the Wind Blows and it’s sequel The Lake House.

I flew through this too. Pacing was brisk due to most of the book being told through emails. Super funny and poignant too.

Lorna Barrett has a fun, easy Booktown Mystery series that I love and have read all the books. Likable characters, good plots and a great setting.

Anything by John Grisham or Michael Crichton. Or, for great fun, the 14 Longmire Books, which are quite a bit different from the TV show in plot and all great fun.
