    Young adult fiction chosen as for an 'easy' read while travelling. Quentin Jacobsen has spent a lifetime loving the magnificently adventurous Margo Roth Spiegelman from afar. So when she cracks open a window and climbs into his life—dressed like a ninja and summoning him for an ingenious campaign of revenge—he follows. After their all-nighter ends, and a new day breaks, Q arrives at school to discover that Margo, always an enigma, has now become a mystery. But Q soon learns that there are clues—and they're for him. Urged down a disconnected path, the closer he gets, the less Q sees the girl he thought he knew...

  • The Dinner - A Novel

    By Herman Koch
    3 stars

    A book that explores the tension of how much responsibility a parent should take for the actions of their child, and what they might do to protect their children from the consequences of their actions. Darkly funny and also not a very nice read in places.
