Am thinking of some of the stuff that i've read. My mom was sort of into history based fiction, mostly romance theme, which I mostly shunned. But, she did hook me into 'The Clan of the Cave Bear' series, as well as a series of the early deep south USA(which probably are banned in places). Shogun, King Rat. Neither parents finished high school, but were very avid readers. Tried some 'westerns', but just couldn't get into three pages of a damn sunrise description(really like the old movies, tho!) Usually, nothing too deep. I sort of laugh at the self help books that i've read over the years. Have totally enjoyed reading ancient history/cultures/religion lately.

I liked the Clan of the Cave Bear stuff except woward the end. If you like Clavell, try Tai Pan.
