What do you read when you're struggling to read what you usually read?

Or to put it another way, what's your junk food/comfort read?

Anything by Stephen King, for me. I also like quick-paced techy/sci-fi novels for when I’m in the mood for something easier. I’m a re-reader, so I will sometimes pick up something I’ve already read and enjoyed before.

I'm all in on Terry Pratchett or Hitchhiker's Guide when I need a break. Pratchett especially is just good high fantasy and some humor mixed in.
