Tumblr, help a girl out.
I’m leaving for vacation on Friday (my first proper vacation in years, and I’m beyond excited) and I need some reading material.
I’m currently finishing up The Art of Fielding and already have Gone Girl and Death Comes to Pemberley.
What else am I missing?
Edit: no 50 Shades of Grey.

Sarah’s Key, The Bookthief, either Michael J. Fox memoirs, any A.J. Jacobs books or Born To Run - The Selection was a good quick YA book too. Enjoy vacation. :)

totally not highbrow but I am about 20% of the way through Stephen Kings 11/22/63 and it is GREAT. Not scary, but a total page turner.

If you liked Death Comes to Pemberley, I think you’d really like The American Heiress by Daisy Goodwin - very Downton Abbey-esque!
