Looking for new books to read as I am preparing to head out on a much needed vacation and want to dig into some good reading. Can be fiction or nonfiction, just so long as it hooked you and made you want to keep reading and reading until the end.

For some chill, positive vibes that had me up rather too late flipping pages, I'd recommend either or both of:

Legends & Lattes - Travis Baldree
The Very Secret Society of Irregular Witches - Sangu Mandanna

They're basically the novel version of a slice of life comic/manga. L&L is more high fantasy, while Very Secret Society is here on Earth if witches were real. It feels like there's a sub-genre of these kinds of stories popping up post pandemic and I'm all for it.

For something more action-packed, this one was incredibly engaging:

The Blacktongue Thief - Christopher Buehlman
