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?

Kurt Vonnegut was one of the easiest writers to read for me. I'd recommend starting with Slaughterhouse-5.

My actual comfort reading, though, is William Gibson, but he is not easy to read.
