I am a die-hard bookworm, & can't stand not having something to read.
One of my favorite series is the Sword of Truth series, by Terry Goodkind. It is a fantasy-based epic story with real-life themes, I couldn't put it down!
If you want a good stand-alone book, I also recommend Pillars of the Earth by Ken Follett (with the sequel World Without End), and Space by James A Michener.
Pillars is an epic set in medieval england, & Space starts with the Air force, going through the launch of the Space shuttle. Both are historically based fiction stories, and very absorbing plots. They are also on my personal "read over & over & over again" list!
Happy reading. T.
