Has anyone got a Holiday Reading List yet?

[SiouxsieSiouxStiletto]

So far I've downloaded:

French Braid by Anne Tyler
30 Days in Paris by Veronica Henry &
The Taste of Ginger by Mansi Shah

I'm open to more suggestions though

I've just started my list.

Thanks @Crackery. It seems like everyone is reading Lessons in Chemistry right now

I read it when it came out but my book club just read it last month and I saw at the same time my hometown's book club (other side of the world to me) was also reading it aha! I would say it's very popular now!

I'm going camping at the end of the week for 4 days and am packing these books:

Project Hail Mary by Andy Weir
A Closed and Common Orbit by Becky Chambers (2nd in Wayfarer series)
Atomic Love by Jennie Fields

Unfortunately I'll be doing all the driving 6 hours to get there. So I won't get any reading done on the journey :(

Going away again end of July and will pack a new list for then!

No I haven't but I'm off on my Hols Saturday.....so thank you 😊 (Very blatant place marking)

I’m off to Spain in 10 days and am taking these:

The Dry by Jane Harper
Force of Nature by Jane Harper
Firefly Lane by Kristin Hannah
And a retro re-read of a classic 80s bonkbuster, Lace by Shirley Conran

Compiling my holiday reading list is one of life's great pleasures imho

This is mine so far-some I've had on kindle for a while but saving for the sun bed:
Demon Copperhead -Barbara Kingsolver
Shrines of Gaiety-Kate Atkinson
The Bandit Queens-Parini Shroff
The Ink Black Heart-Robert Galbraith
Sister Stardust-Jane Green

Not yet but I've a good stock pile in my TBR pile. I will choose five last minute and donate or pass them on once read so I don't need to fly home with them. This means I can't take anything I think I will want to reread!

Yes. I'm going to France in late July and have three books lined up:

G K Chesterton: Literary Essays
Evelyn Waugh: Vile Bodies
Harold Bloom: Take Arms Against a Sea of Troubles

I'll also take a few old favourites just for dipping into:

P G Wodehouse: Jeeves and Wooster Omnibus
Sherlock Holmes
Patrick Fermor: A Time of Gifts
Bill Bryson: Short History of Nearly Everything

Hope you have a great holiday!

Making mine today 😃

All on kindle. Just need to download and then list them out. Few not out quite yet.

Hope this worked properly

Oh I didn't know that Jonas Jonasson had a new book out!

Am trying hard to keep it for holiday and not just read it now🤣

Black Butterflies - Priscilla Morris
Mother's Boy - Patrick Gale
The Satsuma Complex - Bob Mortimer
French Braid - Anne Tyler
The Good, The Bad and the History - Jodi Taylor
The Romantic - William Boyd
Winter's Gifts - Ben Aaronovitch

Doubt I'll get through all of them on my holiday though as we're only going for 8 nights!

I will definitely add that to my list!

Fiction
-Paper Palace- Miranda Cowley
-This Tender Land-William Kent Krueger
-The Book Woman of Troublesome Creek-Kim Michele Richardson
-The Tea Girl of Hummingbird Lane- Linda See
-The Marriage Portrait- Maggie O’Farrell
-The Guide- Peter Heller
-Tomorrow and Tomorrow and Tomorrow- Gabrielle Zevin
-The Gardener- Sally Vickers
-Yellowface-RF Kuang
-Wayward- Emilia Hart

Non Fiction
-Why Has Nobody Told Me This Before?-Julie Smith
-Animal, Vegetable, Miracle- Barbara Kingsolver
-The Ride of her Life- Elizabeth Letts
-Enchantment- Katherine May

Great list!

You're either going on holiday for a lot longer than me or you're a much quicker reader

So far I just have Trust as the one non-Kindle book I’ll take. We’re going to New York and I like to have at least one book linked to my destination. I think I’ll find a really classic New York based book, and perhaps something for our other locations (we start in Vermont but haven’t yet linked the start and end of the holiday - we have 5/6 days to get from there to NY).

Have you read Rules of Civility by Amor Towles? That one is set in post-depression NY

@SiouxsieSiouxStiletto I have not, that’s going on the list, thank you

Hope you have a great holiday, it sounds amazing

I loved Lillian Boxfish Takes a Walk when we went to NYC, Behold the Dreamers too.

I do the same re holiday destinations. Did Cape Cod,Vermont. Maine, Rhode Island and New Hampshire too. Can’t remember what I read in Vermont but Elizabeth Strout is great for Maine, I love her books. Maine by Courtney Sullivan was good too.

Seating Arrangements by Maggie Shipstead is set on a Nantucket New England type island and is good too.
