Fellow book nerds, I need your help.
I need book recommendations. Starting this weekend we will be staying with my MIL for 10 days. I do truly love my MIL, but we get along best in small doses. Also she has no internet or cable. So, no cable, no internet, MIL, andI'm hormonal. This is going to be fun. 
So... read any good books lately? I have already packed Little Women and The Shadow in the wind. Bonus points for any easy mind numbing juicy books. I haven;t ready any guilty pleasure ones in a while (you know like Sookie Stackhouse or Twilight)

You poor thing!
Most of the books that I read wouldn't fall into the category that you're looking for. However, I did enjoy The No. 1 Ladies Detective Agency for a light read.
If you'd like to continue on the Gone With the Wind kick, you might want to check out Rhett Butler's People. It was good, just be sure to go into it with an open mind and not expect it to be too much like GWTW.
Half-Broke Horses was a good, quick read. I read it on vacation in Arizona last year. Interesting story.
Not as light, but other books I've enjoy recently are Suite Francaise and Fortune is a Woman.
Jeez. Obviously I can't type. LOL
Thanks ladies. I will take any recommendations I can get. I have a feeling I will be breaking my personal reading record over the next week and a half.
Kasa~ I don't know if I can read that book about Rhett Butler. I just loved GWTW so much.
I don't think it takes away anything from GWTW at all. Very different storyline and it focuses on a lot of different characters that played little or no role in GWTW. It was good and I enjoyed it, but it was no GWTW. :-)
I'll second "Rhett Butler's People" and also Something Borrowed.
The Stephanie Plum series by Janet Evanovich is pretty good. It's a series of 16 books so far. The first on is "One for the money".
I'm reading the sequel now.
Good, easy, fun.
The Rhett book, which I recently finished, was authorized by the Margaret Mitchell estate, and was a good follow-up to GWTW, but is *far* removed from the events of Scarlett, the unauthorized sequel to GWTW. It was slow at first, but eventually picks up.
