Austin Macauley’s Top Reads for Your Summer Holiday

Austin Macauley’s Top Reads for Your Summer Holiday

Books. For us (unsurprisingly) they are a must have accessory for any part of our holiday, however choosing the perfect holiday read can be a tricky task. If you don’t have an eReader then it’s pretty crucial to ensure that you’ve chosen the best books possible – or else you’re just taking up valuable luggage space. 

Ideally we would say that all of our titles make the perfect holiday read, but for the purpose of this blog post we have chosen just a few to help your difficult decision making.

For those books that help you choose where to go on holiday, or the books to inspire your travel senses – we have chosen these:

The Journey

Journeys don’t always go to plan – there can be delays and you might be left waiting around for a long time, so it’s best to be prepared. Here’s a selection of titles to keep you thoroughly entertained in any eventuality.
