Cabo San Lucas is an absolutely lovely place to rest and relax, especially if you avoid the busy tourist zone on the harbor. We did have some fun shopping and eating in the heart of the action but most of our time was spent poolside.
I read several books while lounging under a big umbrella with a frosty drink in hand. Because my time of utter relaxation was precious, any book in my selection had to absolutely grab my attention. If it didn't, bye-bye. There was a book exchange basket at each pool area where the rejects were quickly deposited. Just because the book did not please me did not mean that it might not appeal to someone else and they must have, because they quickly disappeared. That being said, I found some interesting novels there, too.
What appeals most to me is well written books that were not necessarily on the bestseller list. They are not "cookie-cutter" books nor are they "formula" stories. My favorites are well written stories with a human slant. No fantasy or science fiction for this chick - I want to read about people. Truth, or something very close to it, is "stranger than fiction" in my mind.
Hours of pool time with a fascinating book - what a great vacation.
