Travel reading

I remember a quote that goes something like 'always take your diary when you travel. You never know when you will need something great to read.'
 
How do you choose a book to read when you are traveling? 

My sister used to be a librarian, so I ask her to find me a list of books about the destination. This is not travel guides, but fiction or non-fiction, that has to do with the place. I really like historical fiction that give me the history of a place, not text book like where I tend to get bogged down in details.
 
Tell us what you've read lately.

You should never be without a good book while traveling. One never knows what one's traveling companions might be like, so at least with a book, you have something to retreat to after dinner. However, this group was so wonderful and we were all so chatty you didn't want to leave the table!
