Looking for new books to read as I am preparing to head out on a much needed vacation and want to dig into some good reading. Can be fiction or nonfiction, just so long as it hooked you and made you want to keep reading and reading until the end.

Some great books there, that reminds me I need to read some Susanna Clark.

Great list. Piranesi was also a very fast read for me. I loved the way she painted pictures with her words.
