VACATION READS AND THE CHARACTERS TO VACATION WITH


When it comes to culling out lists like character to vacation with, I confess, I’m not the best creative. It’s not that I wouldn’t want to vacation with, say, Elizabeth Bennet (I mean the intellect and sass), but I guess when I’m reading my mind doesn’t really wander to knowing this character would be cool. I’m not sure why since I do enjoy getting to know the characters as I read. Whatever the reason, and despite my complaints, I do still enjoy a fun vacation read, or the idea of what one might be.

I’m 99.9% sure I’ve already put together books that would be good vacation reads, but yes, I’m repeating myself with this list. I’m going to try to find some books that are more recent that are about characters who vacation or a novel that revolves around a vacation. Whether or not we’ll successfully find good fits, well, this remains to be seen. Let’s dive right in.
