Help me pick a book for mom

[elmer92413]

Need suggestions for a book to get my mother. She primarily reads real conservative novels that you'd find at you local christian book store. Consequently she isn't very adventurous with her book selection, so I'm hoping to get something that will expand her reading world, but I need to be careful that I don't go to far in picking something to "out there." Or I could just get something nonfiction? I'm not sure.

Any suggestions?

Go to urban outfitters and get her that "How to do things" illustrated book. It's great.

Mitch Albom?

Have a Little Faith: A True Story, might just be it. Thanks for the suggestion!

@Mrvile, not sure I found the book you're talking about, but I did find an excellent Where's Waldo collection that I might just get for my cousins/myself.

@Rudeguy, really liking your last two suggestions, thanks!

Anything by Nicholas Sparks

Alternatively, "Pillars of the Earth." One of the best novels I have ever read. Primarily focuses on the building of a cathedral in the 13-14th century. If the premise sounds boring, let me assure you that the book is not.
