What to read?

I’ve decided I want to start reading again.  I used to read a lot as a kid, but fell out of the habit once I left high school.  Now the only things I read are scientific papers.  I feel like reading would be good to get back into as a fun thing I can do anywhere that doesn’t require a computer (like most of my video games).  But I don’t really know what to read. 

I used to read a lot of science fiction, especially from the so-called “golden age” of science fiction.  Things like War of the Worlds, the Invisible Man, the Time Machine, that sort of thing. But I don’t know what other sci-fi has that same “feel.”  I’d also put the Picture of Dorian Gray in that category of book even if it’s not sci-fi per se. 

The other thing I read was mystery novels, but all the authors I used to read are passed and I’ve read most of their books already.

So I need to find things to read.  Does anyone have any suggestions?
