I’m not the type of person who must have a book on the go at all times.

I love a good book going on holidays or if I ever have to travel for work. Reading and I go in spurts – I either read a few, one after the other, or else it’s total deprivation, and I don’t read any for a few months.

At the moment, I am reading The Girl Who Kicked the Hornet's Nestby Stieg Larsson – the final part of the Millennium Trilogy, which started with The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo. I love these books – they're a spellbinding amalgam of murder mystery, family saga, love story, and financial intrigue. I really enjoy a book you feel like never putting down, and these have that in abundance – good fiction with lots going on to keep me interested.

I tend to prefer light reading – nothing too heavy. My list after I finish The Girl Who Kicked the Hornet's Nest?Let's see: The Hunger Gamesby Suzanne Collins, and A Vintage Affair, by Isabel Wolff.
