Read what you enjoy, and then read what the author mentions enjoying reading. Read a P.G. Wodehouse book: my personal suggestion. Preferably one from the Jeeves series.
A good book is not worth the investment only if you don't like it. I would assert that there aren't many worthless books that you can really enjoy. Also don't be afraid to drop a book that you find boring even if everyone says it's a great book its a classic etc. A good book will feel like a drug, you won't be able to put it down. It's not an investment its something you do for escapism. If it doesn't feel this way, just don't read it.
