Finally here!

[jrydberg]

In 8 hours I'll be off to pick up my daughter, finally!

On a side note, I need a good book or two to read on the plane. Any suggestions? I'd prefer fiction over non-fiction.

 

[EsmeraldaX]

What sort of fiction do you like?

So excited for you about getting your daughter!!!

 

[Pooh93]

That is great! Have a great trip! How long will you get to have her?

 

[minniepumpernickel]

Good luck! Have a safe trip!

I'm only reading some non-fiction manuals, nothing too interesting. Hope you get some good ideas.

 

[Chrissi Pooh]

I was just going to post asking if today was the day!!

Yeah daddy....have a nice flight and squeeze your baby girl tight!!!!

 

[jrydberg]

My favorites are generally historical fiction (any period really).

Edited to add:

I get my daughter until next summer Well, with a brief trip after Christmas, but I'll go with her then.

That's great!!! Have a safe trip!!

I don't know what type of fiction you like, but for a light read that you can probably finish in one flight, grab one of the Tom Clancy's NetForce series -- they're pretty entertaining without getting as involved as a typical Tom Clancy novel (mostly, I think, because he doesn't actually write them )

Whooo Hooo!!! Have a great trip! No book suggestions, for I am in a reading lull.

Have you read the Da Vinci Code? If so, try Brown's earlier book, Angels and Demons. You should be able to get it in paperback. I enjoyed them both.

 

[sweet angel]

I was going to say DaVinci Code too.

That is great!!! I am very happy for you!!

I'm in a reading lull also, so unfortunately I don't have any suggestions.

 

[jrydberg]

Thanks for the suggestions Brown's other books and NetForce books both sound like pretty good options. That'll give me something to work with

 

[Saffron]

Have a safe trip Jeff! I'm so happy for you! Woo hoo! I'm happy for your little one too!

Now hurry, get to that airport! Don't be late!

See you when you get home!

May I suggest Brinbaum's Guide to WDW 2005.

Pick up something by Harry Turtledove like "Guns of the South"....It's speculative fiction / alternate history, and a really good read

Have fun

I know you were looking for fiction, but Managing Ignatius by Jerry Strahan is a great book, if you've ever read A Confederacy of Dunces by John Kennedy Toole. Strahan writes about the real-life inception and development of the "Lucky Dog" vendors in New Orleans (the inspiration for CoD), and at some points you'll swear it's fiction!

Anyway, just a thought!

 

[jrydberg]

Well, I went with Dan Brown's Angels and Demons and Ken Follett's Hornet Flight. IMGONNABE40!, I'll blame you if I don't like Angels and Demons

Seriously though, thanks for the suggestions. Got a few in there to keep in mind for future reading. Didn't see any Harry Turtledove there, but it was a small bookstore.
