What to read?

I don't know what book to take with me on Friday!

I need sometime long enough to occupy two 6 hour ferry/train journeys, so I don't want to take along a book that I'm already half way through, because then I'll finish it too quickly. But I also don't want to end up with a long, brand new book... and find that I don't like it.

I don't want to start a new, long series, because in a few weeks, it will be time to start re-reading GRR Martin, ready for "A Feast for Crows" coming out in October. I can't risk starting a new obession right now. I just need a couple of weeks of filler books, before it's time to ignite my GRRM obsession all over again.

Normally I end up taking about ten books on holiday with me, to cover for all eventualities and moods. (Then we end up so busy on holiday that I never open any of them.) But this time I need to carry everything with me, so can only cope with one or two.

Ah, the dilemma...!

Oh well. I suppose I could always take the Traveller rules, and become word perfect in all the tiniest little details, like king_pellinor is with Ars Magica rules (much to the GM's frustration.)
