Need book recommendations fast!

[atexsix]

I'm so overwhelmed with packing and such that I'm drawing a blank every time I go into my book apps, I need a page turner or two.  Has anybody read anything recently that they couldn't put down?

Midwives by Chris Bohjalian

[albingirl]

Books men seem to love are anything by Michael Connelly, John Grisham, Stuart Woods, Daniel Silva.  At least, that's what my husband reads.

The Lincoln Highway

A 2nd vote for The Book of Lost Names  

Also People of the Book - Geraldine Brooks and The Nightingale - Kristin Hannah

It would help to know what your interests are but Skeletons at the Feast by Chris Bojalian is one of his best IMHA. If you enjoy it you will have a good source to keep you going for a while.

The Great Believers by Rebecca Makkai

One book I enjoyed on our Alaska cruise was Alaska by James Michener. Started it before we left home so by the time we got to Alaska I was into more recent history than the beginnings of time and mastadons, etc.

HI Bruno,    

 

I've been reading all the Jame Patterson Alex Cross series. If you haven't read them you could start with #1 and go from there (there are 27 or 28 of them!). Have a great trip!
