Beach (& Not-so-Beachy) Books

We are leaving for the beach on Tuesday morning. Since the library's closed on Sundays and Monday will be a marathon work-day for me, I made a vacation-read book run yesterday afternoon. Not sure which or how many I will actually take with me. Pulling from both my library dash and my own book shelves, here are the books on the consideration list:

• Sharp Objects by Gillian Flynn
• The Virgin of Small Plains by Nancy Pickard
• The Official Book Club Selection by Kathy Griffin
• The Black Echo by Michael Connelly
• The Black Ice by Michael Connelly
• Real Women Don't Wear Size 2 by Kelley St. John
• The Jester by James Patterson & Andrew Gross
• The House of Thunder by Dean Koontz
• Crazy Love by Leslie Morgan Steiner
• The Almost Moon by Alice Sebold
• Feather Crowns by Bobbie Ann Mason
• Lost & Found by Jacqueline Sheehan
• Too Close to Home by Linwood Barclay
• The Secret Between Us by Barbara Delinsky
• Beach Road by James Patterson & Peter de Jonge
  

So what do you think? Suggestions & discouragements are welcome!
