I need book recommendations.

We have a pool in our backyard. Usually, on the weekends, our kids come to enjoy the pool. Those days are filled with family tumult. Always fun but, definitely, tiring.

If we’re lucky, my husband and I would have one day over the weekend alone to enjoy the pool by ourselves and relax. My husband loves to putter around the pool. He has a hand vacuum that he loves to swim around the pool with.

I, on the other hand, love to sit by the pool reading.  I am, however, at the end of my current book list. So I need recommendations. I like novels, although not a fan of historical fiction. And I love science fiction.

What would you recommend to read at the pool?
