Planning 10 day trip and looking for some good reading material.
I tend to buy businessy/entrepreneurial books, but want to just relax on this vacation. The last book I read was Gone Girl and I loved it. Looking for something else fast-paced. With a mystery edge would be great, but not necessary. |

| I love anything by Ruth Ware. I just read The Lying Game which was great. If you like historical fiction, The Nightingale is excellent and also has a good mysterious element to it. |

Re: Ruth Ware.
I still haven't completed Into the Woods yet. And I bought it over a year ago. Recommend: • Dark Spaces • Sharp Objects Both written by Gillian Flynn. • The Girl on the Train • What She Knew • Camino Island by John Grisham. |
