Easy reading – e.g. taut thriller – I ordered (5,10)

I believe the answer is:

light literature

'easy reading' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

'e g taut thriller i ordered' is the wordplay.
'ordered' indicates an anagram.
'e'+'g'+'taut'+'thriller'+'i'='egtautthrilleri'
'egtautthrilleri' is an anagram of 'LIGHT LITERATURE'.

(Another definition for light literature that I've seen is " Easy reading".)

I've seen this clue in The Everyman puzzle in The Observer.
