When I travel, I always find time to get a bit of reading time in. Car trips, flights, and relaxing by a pool or on a beach afford ample time to read fantastic books. Here is What I Read while traveling to the Cayman Islands.
Books Finished:
Moonlight Over Paris by Jennifer Robson
I just love Jennifer Robson, and her extremely well researched and written novels. All of her books are lovely stories with imaginative and authentic characters. And this book is no exception. It follows Lady Helena, Lord Edward’s former fiancé after their engagement is broken. It is probably my favorite of the series, as the story moves from England back to France, and therefore a little less stuffy, and more bohemian.
The FitzOsbornes in Exile by Michelle Cooper
A sequel to A Brief History of Montmaray, which I chose based off of a Goodreads suggestion, this entry takes place in England during the 1930s, while the FitzOsbornes learn about the wider world beyond Montmaray and how to navigate high society, and try to restore Montmaray as World War Two begins. Very good, and book number three, The FitzOsbornes at War, is on my two read list, probably for March.
The Kill Order by James Dashner
The fourth book in the Maze Runner series, and a prequel to the series. It starts out with the familiar characters of Thomas and Teresa right as they are getting ready to enter the Maze, but the jumps back in time to tell the story of the solar flares and the time before the Flare and immediately after the Flare is introduced to the survivors. And when the book jumps back in time, we are introduced to a whole new set of characters. But stick with the book to the very end, and the familiar characters are pulled back into the story. And apparently book five, The Fever Code, another prequel, will be released in September 2016. So that’ll be on my to-read list as well.
Deeper Sport Diving and Dive Computers by Steven M. Barsky
While scuba diving at Cayman Brac, I took a Deep Diver course. This book was the required reading for that class. The book is published by SDI (Scuba Diving International), the entity that certified me as a scuba diver. It’s got quite a lot of good information, some new and some a refresher from the Open Water Diver class.
