For vacation reading:
Ralph Peter's Civil War novels. Start with Cain at Gettysburg.
John Le Carre's pre-1990 spy novels.
Any of Rex Stout's Nero Wolfe novels.
Burr or Julian by Gore Vidal.
Anything by HL Mencken. He ages well.

On my way out this morning I am going to swing by the nearby used book store and see about your suggestions!
Ann Patchett-Commonwealth I just finished today, a great read.
Love Diane Chamberlain....I've read all I can get through our library system.
Emilie Richards-I've read all of hers I can get too.
Gardnr: Ann Patchett is one of my favorite contemporary authors, and Chris Bohjalian is another. Did you read Bel Canto? That book just pulled me in and wrung me dry and broke my heart.
I'll have to check out Chamberlain.

"Pillars of the earth" Ken Follet

And for pure silliness the Stephanie Plum series

Also LOVE LOVE LOVE the Outlander series by Diane Gabaldon. These are near 800 pages so each took me nearly 2 months to read d/t the paid employment opportunity I participate in.
