Match your book to your vacation spot

Hope Corrigan

“Benchley on Cape Cod, Marlon James in Jamaica, Sally Rooney in Ireland, Marquez in Colombia, le Carre in Panama… A large part of my vacation excitement is tailoring my book(s) choices to be set in the place I’m visiting. It enriches the experience especially when you read a sentence referencing a landmark or street you just saw or walked down.”

“I watch Jaws every 4th of July but I also try listening to the audiobook when I can. Peter Benchley doesn't seem to get enough credit for penning this beloved story. I do think the movie poster elevated the book cover significantly, as the original cover features a toothless, drab, hardly menacing shark. For public library users, the audiobook is available on Hoopla Digital!”
