I'll probably be thrown out for asking this, but what do you read outside of the travel realm? Personally I read a lot of biographies. Teddy Roosevelt, Stalin, Marx, to name a few. Plus I've read all of Clive Cussler's works. What do you read when its time to escape to "Neverland?"

I find antique etiquette books to be quite interesting. I have a pair from the 1920s that leave Emily Post in the dust.

Other than that I read lots of histories, Classic Literature, and books on language. And sometimes, for fluff, I'll borrow a book from my flatmate.

Actually Mike, I like your post. I don't read many travel-related books at all.

My favorite fluff reads are a few fantasy series, and some of the 'easy' recent novels, like 'Life of Pi.' Stuff like that.

But I have really made it a point to read many of the classics. I like many of the english writers (Dickens, Bronte, Eliot), I like Dostoyevsky, I soon plan to read Anna Karenina..

I occasionally get into non-fiction kicks, which would be philosophy or history. Sometimes science.

Otherwise, I read Audubon magazines...

TOM ROBBINS!!!!!!! I think he is the greatest. I have read all of his books numerous times and they still make me laugh and ponder my existence
