Vacation Time: Need A Good Book

It's vacation time for me, so one of the last things on my list of things to do, is buy a new book. And I need your help.

I often order books online and read them on my Kindle or iPad. But there's something about having a book in your hand when you're sitting on the beach. And that's what I plan to do. So I want to know, what's the best book you've read in the past year? Help me find the perfect reading material for a day by the water. Thanks!
