It’s time to get off the wheel. Imagine days lying in or relaxing on the beach, or in your own backyard.
Laid-back days are built for leisurely or serious reading. Soul searching or fun, reading is a fascinating activity that delivers anywhere -anytime- every time.
I asked readers to recommend some of their recent great reads. With Black Friday deals still available at some retail bookstores, it’s quick and easy to bag a good book bargain.
Here is a mixed-genre list of the most enjoyed and/or informative reads. Blurbs are not included; they are available online and at bricks and mortar bookstores wherever you are.
I took the liberty of naming some lists. Three recommendations from Queensland’s Logas Padayachee, who thoroughly enjoyed her choices:

When the Singing Stops by Di Morrissey
Without Merit by Colleen Hoover
Apples Never Fall by Liane Moriarty
