I teach adult ed, so they have to be 17. Most are drop outs, 18 or older.How old are the guys?
If young then check out diary of a wimpy kid by jeff kinney. It is a series and i witnessed it making avid readers out of nintendo kids. Same goes for the Harry Potter fast food.
If attention spans are at issue, try books of short stories. Rarely more than a few chapters, completed in a short period of time, almost instant gratification...
Ray Bradbury... Philip K. Dick... Stephen King...
When I was in high school, I read all of the works by Louis L'Amour. Not short stories necessarily, though he wrote some, but westerns. Who doesn't love a good western?
"A good western" sounds a lot like "the mellifluous chimes of a garbage truck"
