Reading is very relaxing and a favorite book can become a vacation retreat for me!

I can watch a beautiful sunrise through the eyes of one of the characters,splash in a mountain stream,

become someone else for 15 minutes, and even walk through the world's greatest museums.

I have read these books before listing them and have been helped and/or entertained by all of them!

Check out the selections below for a new book or some of your treasured favorites!
