I've been in a serious reading slump lately and I'm in desperate need for a good book to get me motivated to start reading more. Every book I pick up lately just seems to bore me for some reason.
I'm looking for books kind of like Coraline, Miss Peregrine's Home For Peculiar Children, or Harry Potter.

_The Ocean at the End of the Lane_ might fit your bill, esp if you liked Coraline.
Sounds like you might be interested in sort of a cozy mystery. I recently read **The Twyford Code** by Janice Hallett. The book has a cool found footage structure. Most of the book is a collection of transcribed audio files recovered from the phone of a missing person. They all appear to be the missing person narrating his decision and efforts to investigate the mysterious disappearance of his favorite teacher while he was on a field trip with her 40 years ago. He feels partially responsible because the teacher had become obsessed with a book he had given her. She believed the book held a secret code, and the field trip had actually been an effort to find out more about the author.
Not a thriller or horror … just a cozy interesting mystery perfect for curling up on the couch on a rainy day.
