One of the books I've enjoyed the most while on vacation was Douglas Adams' "Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy".

Kurt Vonnegut "Fates Worse Than Death"
It's not a novel, it's a collection of essays, but they're FANTASTIC.
He's a funny (and thoughtful) author.

Haruki Murakami: Wind Up Bird Chronicles
He is my favorite author, and this is probably his most imaginative and cherished book. He is quite popular is Japan, but he is starting to make a name for himself over here too.

One book everyone needs is, "The Zombie Survival Guide". It's awesome. You can pick it up on Amazon.com or any Borders Books Store.

"You Shall Know Our Velocity" by Dave Eggers and some H.P. Lovecraft thrown in for good measure.

Woohoo!
Cheers to a productive time
Read "Old Man and the Sea" when I was out in Colorado. One of those trips where you get to your destination, look around what books are available at the house you're staying at, see something you've always meant to read, pick it up and plow through it.
Oh, it was depressing. Hooray!

As Far As My Feet Will Carry Me by Josef Bauer.
