I’m linking up today with #TopTenTuesday: That Artsy Reader Girl: Ten Books I Read While On Vacation.

Top Ten Tuesday (meme)

I have read each of these books but I haven’t read all of these books while on vacation.  However, I can enthusiastically recommend each one for an engaging vacation read because they are entertaining and on the lighter side. What type of books do you like to read on vacation?

In no particular order, let me introduce you to a few of my vacation read recs….

  1. I love this twist, Carol. I read the first Vicarage book and didn’t continue. Knowing the others were all good, I will be adding it. I have read a few of these and have a few more on my TBR. I will keep them in mind for my winter sojourn to Florida.
