The Cocktail for a Perfect Holiday Read

While the sun is shining, thoughts inevitably drift towards relaxing by the pool or on the beach with an engrossing book and a cocktail...

What makes a perfect holiday read?

Here's my recipe for the Holiday Read Cocktail:

1.  Into your solid, well contained plot; blend a complementary mix of tasty characters

2.  Add a generous shot of action

3.  Drop in a dash of violence

4.  Sprinkle in some sensuous sex

5.  Shake vigourously to mix in all the subtle flavours of sub plot

6.  Finally, serve chilled with a twist

 

I'll always prefer the smell, texture and feel of a print book, but for holidays, an eReader is a much more convenient thing to pack than all those heavy books.

Make sure your eReader is fully loaded with lots of great books.




You can get all three of my novels; The Bronze Box, Solomon's Secrets and Gabriel's Game; Part 1, for less than the cost of a bottle of suncream.
