I think Marian Keyes is great.  My favorite would have to be 
_Watermelon_, though.

Cindy's comment about short novels being compelling got me thinking.  
One of my classes just finished reading _Of Mice and Men_ this 
morning, which is only 107 pages.  They loved it.  What other short 
novels can you all think of that are particularly good?  _The Old Man 
and the Sea_ comes to mind.
