Hello Veeky Forums! I have never been on this board before, but I think I came to the right place. I'm going on vacation with my girlfriend tomorrow. Since she picked a spot where all we can do is chill at the resort and on the beach, I need a good book to pass the time. If anyone is willing to help me, please post your favorite book that you have ever read. I'm going to go to the library tomorrow before we leave and pick out one or two books that you recommend.

Thanks for all the suggestions guys. I'm from a small European country, so I doubt that our local library has all of them. I'll try to get my hands on one of the suggested ones

I wanted to make him feel good about his trash post. His pathetic ass probably laughed when he thought that I would go to the library and actually borrow something from that list. Even tho this is Veeky Forums it's still Veeky Forums
