The Labyrinth by Kate Mosse - a book to lose yourself in - has past and present intertwined with a mystery tying the two heroines together. Is a little lengthy in parts with over-descriptiveness, but on the whole very entertaining.
Of course, Pride and Prejudice
Wilkie Collins is a master story teller and great holiday reading.
Very difficult to be selective when there are so many great books to choose from!

A brilliant read would be Philip Pullman's His dark Materials trilogy otherwise known as The Northern Lights trilogy.
in the trilogy there are, The northern lights, The Subtle Knife and The Amber Spyglass.
Once you start reading them you won't be able to put them down. They are a fantasy/ philosophical sort of book, will certainly give you something to think about.
if you prefer Crime/mystery you can read The Sally Lockhart series, by Philip Pullman. they are excellant, and you'll be addicted to them. There are, Ruby in the Smoke, Tiger in the Well, The Tin Princess and Shadow in the North.
have a good holiday.

'Kafka on the Shore' by Haruki Murakami.
A very clever book that interweves different stories; it's really easy to read but also a little bit different to a lot of the mass-market stuff out there.
You won't be diasppointed.
Kaden's (above) suggestion, in my opinion is a bit too heavy-going for a holiday away. Sure, 'The Unbearable...' 's a good book, but it's a bit hard going at times...

You didn't say what kind of themes or what age group.
Try:
Hawksong: The Kiesha'ra: Volume One
by Amelia Atwater-Rhodes,
Trappings of fantasy veil a stock romance plot. Nineteen-year-old Danica is a shapeshifting hawk. Heir to the throne of an avian race, she hates the generations-old war with the serpent people that has claimed so many of her kin. Her worst enemy, the dreaded, but sexy, Zane Cobriana of the serpiente, proposes a peace treaty bound by a marriage between them. Though Danica mistrusts Zane, how can she refuse the chance at peace? Despite their racial differences, Zane and Danica find each other physically appealing. Is their attraction enough to overcome centuries of hatred? Though the fantasy is strained, Danica's (PG-rated) love story, which follows the plot of conventional adult romance, is enjoyable for that genre.

To open your minds eye to many possibilities "Piercing The Darkness" but may be difficult to obtain.
Hitchhikers guide to the Galaxy for a little lightheartedness and "Women are from Venus, Men are from Mars" to assist you if you are so inclined.
I do hope that you end up with very little time to read and too many people to me and place to go and things to do. Have a great holiday

The Perks of being a Wallflower. i think of the author#s Stephen Chbosky. This e book became into fairly marvelous/ i could not placed it down and the protagonist's perceptions have been astute and deeply shifting in places. it is a sprint dark for holiday examining in some areas however the uplifting bits in others extremely make it nicely worth examining.

Charlotte's Web and Moby Dick.
There is much surprising about being an underdog to come out with.....your life.....ok, maybe I spoiled both of them for you, but you should read some classics. See why they worked, how they didn't, maybe you should email me a 500 word report at the end of summer.....lol....
Just kidding, read tons of books, tons of authors, tons of different topics, you will expand your knowledge by .....TONS.....
Reading books is a good thing.....drinking lots of beer and watching women in bizarre sports,,,,,not so educational
ps....used to oil wrestle, I'm sure I didn't inspire anyone to read some Shakespeare.....

Billy Bunter books are quite entertaining. These books were probably intended for a juvenile age group, never-the-less, they are humorous, clever and quite enjoyable. By the way, it is becoming quite difficult to locate these books now-a-days.
