Off on holiday abroad this week, first time in 5 years. I'm planning to do nothing except read and need some ideas please!
I love thrillers and books that are very easy to get into. I like Diane chamberlain and CL Taylor at the moment but feel like I just want to read something wonderful rather than something that's ok. Kate Atkinson, Curtis Sittenfield and Erin Kelley are other authors I like.

Once there were Wolves by Charlotte McConaghy. It's a murder mystery/thriller set in Scotland where a conservation group is piloting a project to reintroduce wolves in to the Highlands

The Seamstress by Maria Duenas. Brilliant book set at the time of the Civil War in Spain.

Where are you going? Maybe something set there?
I was in Rome last summer and read Conclave which was excellent. Dastardly goings on during the voting of a new Pope.
