DH and I are going to Mexico in June for a few kid-free days. I haven't read a book since LO (19 months) was born, so I have a lot of catching up to do! Last book I read was probably Gone Girl, which I loved. Any recommendations? Not so much into fantasy - prefer mystery or novels.
-
If you haven't read The Fault in Our Stars, I highly recommend that one!
-
Dark Places is also by Gillian Flynn and I loved it.
-
Vintage by Susan Gloss
-
@mrshighheels ditto. But bring tissues
Also, i would recommend "The Book Thief". I'm reading it now, and it is so good

@MrsPastryLady: I LOVED The Book Thief!
Thanks ladies!

I really liked Where'd You Go Bernadette?
It's a mystery but a different sort of one, and has a lot of funny bits.
-
I liked Where'd you go, Bernadette too. A nice humorous but touching light read.
My favorite book of the last 5 years is The Brief Wondrous Life of Oscar Wao, by Junot Diaz. Just...amazing.

@Anagram: downloaded! excited to read

Someone recommended Nora Roberts and I ended up taking one of her books on my last vacation. It's called "Dark Witch: Book One of The Cousins O'Dwyer Trilogy". I really enjoyed it and it's not at all smutty, IMO. It's more about friendships. Plus, it's only $2.99 on Kindle.

@MrsPastryLady: I LOVED the book thief too!!

The night circus! Such a great book.
-
@SugarplumsMom: I'm reading the 2nd one when we go in vacation next week.

The Liane Moriarty books are perfect beach reads! I miss the characters! What Alice Forgot was so enjoyable!
