Grab a Vacation Read!

One of my favorite parts of getting away is choosing what reading material I’ll bring along. I like books that are light but not flimsy. Entertaining but not trivial. Smart but not pedantic. I like a ripping good story, characters I can care about (even if they aren’t perfect), and a setting that feels like a vacation all by itself.

Currently in my vacation suitcase (and just let me digress to say how NICE it is to be packing a suitcase again. #TeamPhizer):

See? Something for every mood that could possibly strike, and absolutely nothing that requires a dictionary to understand (not that there’s anything wrong with challenging reading, but vacation require relaxation of both body and mind).

Do you have a book you’d like to recommend? Let me know in the comments! I’m always looking for my Next Good Read. And as always, please support your local independent bookstore.
