This year I went for a Terry Pratchet- Unseen Academicals and some one called Stieg Larsson-the girl who played with fire. I also bought torch thingy that goes around your head so I can read in the tent at night. Very taken with this, even if it does make me look a total twat. What is every one else reading on the beach this year?

Or is this one of those crazy Brits who think a vacation is holy?

Status: offline 		I'm in a re-read mood....I've done all of the Sookie books for the 3rd, maybe 4th...ok 5th time.....and I'm looking for the newest one, it's supposed to have been released in May, but so far, haven't seen it.  Also looking for Janet Evanovich's 16th Stephanie Plum book, but it may not have been released yet.  My other series books hasn't released the next one....don't know when that will happen.  Obviously, I only read to escape.....I'm not much for deep books.....I like to have a laugh when I read!  I've also re-read all my Steven King books on the shelf.
