I'd definately recommend either of the Candace Bushnell books. Sex in the City and 4 Blondes are both really funny and witty.
I've read both of the Bridget Jones' books, and loved them. If you liked them, I'd check out Running in Heels and Getting Over It by Anna Maxted.
The Harry Potter books are definately not to be skipped. They're so much more intelligent and interesting than the films.
I also recommend anything by Nicholas Sparks. Especially The Notebook.
The Prophet by Kahlil Gibran is interesting if you're into more philisophical work.
The Unbearable Lightness of Being by Milan Kundera is also an amazing book.
I'm currently working on the Silmarillion, then plan to start the Unfinished Tales by JRR Tolkien before I re-read The Hobbit and The Lord of the Rings.
I think it's amazingly sad how few people read for pleasure nowadays, or if they do read for pleasure, it's smut like Cosmo or Maxim.
