Recommend Me Some Holiday Reads

[Lee.]

I need to download about 6 books for going on holiday. Would you all please recommend some books suitable for reading in the sun... Nothing too hard going or depressing.

I read the Dragon Tattoo trilogy last year and want something equally as good this year.

Thanks :)

This isn't a ******ing book club, Lee.

[Lee.]

Look at the title of the sub forum. Doss ******

Have you read anything by Marian Keyes? Humourous chick lit I suppose you could call her books. Rachel's Holiday is the first one I believe, it's loosely based on her time in rehab she is an ex alcoholic.

Drug smuggling is overrated tbh :idc:

Best thing about Kindle is the ability to download a sample of the book at least you don't end up buying something you won't read. On the other extreme I like the Karin Slaughter books. Crime Fiction.

Yes, I'd forgotten all about her actually. I've read a few of her books before and really enjoyed them.

Omg!!! That's my rucksack! :shocked:

[Lee.]

Has anybody read anything by Jo Nesbo?

[Lee.]

Anybody?

[Jesus.]

How about game of thrones?

[Marc]

Lee may I suggest you just pick up a few books at the airport, best sellers.

Nah, hard going for reading in the sun I think

I've not actually read them ness.. I might give the first one a go and see what I think. So many people have told me they're utter crap though...

I love the books, but i'm not sure it's your cup of tea. They're rather saucy. :blush2:

[Vicky.]

The true blood books..mind after the first one they are loads different to the tv series :laugh:

Dont bother with 50 shades of grey..its seriously crap :bored:

[Lee.]

Ooh, I hadn't even thought about those Vicky!

Are they really good?

[Vicky.]

I thought so. I took them to read when I went to lanzarote. Ended up finishing like 7 books over the space of a week :laugh:

[Cherie]

No idea how 50 shades, (only bought the first one) became such a huge seller I gave up after Chapter 2, the dialogue is very feeble, maybe it hots up when it gets to the saucy bits but I honestly couldnt be bothered wading through it.

Yeah I've heard that cherie.. Although last year on holiday, I swear every woman round the pool was reading it. I might give it a shot and if its garbage then ill try something else :)

Stephen King's Under the Dome

I got this recently and haven't actually started it, but I've got a feeling it's gonna be good.

[Glenn.]

I started reading Under the Dome but I didn't commit to it. What I read was ok though.

My intuition is never wrong, it has to be a good book :laugh:

Have you read the Hunger Games trilogy yet Lee? very easy reading but brilliant at the same time

Yes Niamh.. Absolutely loved them.

[Niamh.]

hhmmm I reckon you should try the first Game of thrones then, they're not as easy reading as the Hunger Games but they're so bloody good they feel easier than they are

I've got the first book but I'm not sure it's holiday reading.. A LOT of people to keep up with. No harm in trying though :)

Oh you have it already? go for it then, seriously, best books I've read in ages, since I finished the last one I can't get into any other books. There is more to follow but it isn't a chore cos they're so good

[Marsh.]

I read the first Hunger Games and couldn't be bothered with the others.

The story wasn't bad but the writing was abysmal. Could've been great in the hands of a better author.

'A Short History of Tractors in Ukrainian' by Marina Lewycka. I always recommend this, I thought it was a really excellent book... sad, funny, thought-provoking, uplifting...
