What books did I end up taking with us on vacation this summer?

What will I read on our vacation this summer? Want to help me narrow it down or guess what I'll choose?
previously.


I was looking for some help in narrowing down my choices for reading during our family vacation.


The good thing was that our vacation was a glorious 12 days in length. That's long. And the main point of the vacation was to relax and have fun with our kids. The downside of that is that I really didn't spend nearly as much time reading as I expected to but I am happy with the way it turned out.


So...what books did I choose to take with me?


Goldie Hawn's A Lotus Grows in the Mud

Dave Gorman vs the Rest of the World
                                                                    and



The Unauthorized Guide to Sex and the Church by Carmen Renee Berry



I also finished my second reading of A Fraction of the Whole by Steve Toltz.



I also began reading Malcolm Gladwell's What the Dog Saw because it came available as an ebook through our library and those are time-sensitive when they've been placed on hold and become available.
