What Shall I Read? discussion

Having recently come back from a holiday where I took seven books with me, I'm intrigued as to what you're all taking on holiday with you this summer if you're going away...

Seven books? Good old-fashioned paper books or e-books? I think you'd need seperate luggage for your books if you took that many paperbacks or hardbacks! :D Mind you, I've been known to come back from a holiday with that many books!

My holiday is Theakston's Crime Writing Festival in Harrogate, so I'm not sure I'll be taking a book with me as I'm sure to come back with any number of books!

Will you be there?

Yep Seven paperback books - stuffed in hold luggage and hand luggage, after all who needs clothes! I will definitely be there at Harrogate, come and say hello!

I'm coming to a bit of Harrogate - I'll be staying with my mum in Ilkley and plan to come over for a bit on Friday and Saturday. I'll probably decide on the day what I want to go to (I've been to lots of crime events in the past so have heard a lot of my favourite crime writers speak, so I'm happy to see when I get there what's going on and whether there are tickets, and otherwise just hang out and maybe buy a couple of books!)

I'm not going abroad, I will probably take my Kindle and 2 or 3 paperbacks - I have Retribution on my Kindle but I always have review books to finish, and might need to write a review or two while I'm at my mum's.

Lynsey, hope to see you there!

It's my first time there for the Crime Festival so I treated myself to a weekend ticket. Hoping to make the most of it, but I'm sute it's going to be a lovely and friendly atmosphere outside of the talks/events too.

I'm not holidaying this year but if I was... I would take On the Island by Tracey Garvis Graves.
