For what I'm going to read while on vacation, I usually pick books that are set in the place I'm visiting or something from my TBR that I've been waiting for 'just the right time' to read.

However, I do have a firm 'rule' for the journey home, when I'm tired and perhaps a little sad that our holiday is over. For that, I almost always reach for a mystery novel by Dick Francis. They are the comfort food of British mysteries for me. They protagonist is always a Good Man, the mysteries are interesting but not too twisty, and the setting is usually the English countryside. Perfect escapism!
