I was never able to read while on a car journey when I was a kid as it used to make me feel sick. Now it's not a problem and is one of the joys of a long journey.
It is also where the Kindle does come into its own. Not much to pack either, just don't forget the charger!
I catch up with reading, as well as draft stories, when travelling and have a lovely time doing so.
Do you remember the old I-Spy books? I used to love them but they were no good to me on a trip! I had to remember what I'd seen and fill my books in on getting home!
I don't pick specific holiday reading as I always have books to catch up on but the joy of holidays is having the time to do that.
Wherever you go this summer, happy reading!
