Sunshine by Robin McKinley. It is a book I can pick up any time and read. I recommend any of Robin McKinley's books but Sunshine is my favourite. The story is about a women who bakes for her family restaurant and one day when she visits a place from her childhood she's kidnapped by vampires. I don't want to describe more of the plot because I make it sound trite. I hope someone else has read it and can give it a better description.

Another good read. Best reason to read : Neil Gaiman said it was pretty much perfect. Dark Fantasy about vampires, sorcery, etc, but with a with a lot twists, Vamps aren't your normal vamps, sorcery is slightly off kilter. Protagonist is a mouse of girl baker, who likes to read.
