    I was just about to suggest Cussler. Always makes for an engaging read.

    Authors:
    James Patterson - all time favorite (including his "Women's Murder Club" series).
    Janet Evanovitch - love her. Makes me laugh out loud.

    Currently reading "Maneater" by Gigi Levangie Grazer - pretty funny. Reminds me of "Sex in the City."

    Have been meaning to report back but still trying to finish all the books. The Jeff Long Descent books are scary, so didn't take those on the trip. Finished the first one before I left, though, and it was very good. LOVED The Old Man and the Sea by Hemmingway. Have since gone back to the library and checked out A Movable Feast. Working right now but will try to post more this weekend. Thanks again, everyone, for turning me on to all these great reads. Had a very relaxing trip. Sad to be back but planning my next get-away.

    Maryann,
    Happy to hear you had a relaxing trip and that you loved The Old Man and the Sea. You should read, when time allows "Islands In The Stream" which was published after Hemmingway died. The movie version starring George C. Scott is pretty good but doesn't scratch the surface of the book.

    "Don't Stop The Carnival" by Herman Wouk (author of the Caine Mutiny) is a funny book about a
    New York theater agent who buys a hotel on an imaginary Caribbean island. Some of the zany things
    that happen do remind me of Jamaica.

    Warning: Written in the early 60's so not "politically correct" by today's standdards.
