Ok, so in a couple of weeks DH and I will be going to stop in a log cabin in Scotland for a week and I'm hoping you lovely mn'ers will be able to help me.
I have visions of days spent lolling grandiosely about with my head stuck in a good book during down time. This will be the first physical book purchase in awhile, as I usually just read on my kindle (due to DH operating a strict one in, one out policy on actual books as the spare room now resembles a library) however, the place we are staying has a hot tub, and therefore, using my kindle in it might not be the best idea...
So, I'm looking for two or three really good books to take with me.
My favourite authors are: Stephen King, Terry Pratchett, Chuck Paulanuik, Brett Easton Ellis, Irvine Walsh, Lionel Shriver....however I've read pretty much all their offerings.
I also enjoyed the hunger games trilogy and GoT books.
To be honest, I can get on with most books, but am not a big fan of 'chick-lit' (confessions of a....and Bridget Jones Diary etc) or the typical 'holiday book club' type reads....(I'm thinking of the type that used to make up Richard and Judy's bookclub type with the swirly writing on the cover and 'a secret that threatens to ruin everything' included in the blurb)
Does anyone have any suggestions?
Thanks all
