What are the best "airport" novels?
Light speedy reading that's still got some bite to it.

Costs like zero dollars to produce/buy. Tastes good (if you grew up drinking sugar water which a lot of poor people do). End of story

That was my first thought. Hemingway, Vonnegut, Twain come to mind.

Something in vignettes; collective stories are much better than a full narrative when youโ€™re in flight for a few hours at a time
Pic related isnโ€™t great, but I read it when I fly for work and take a nap or something after if I need to

I kinda like pausing the story and going about the real world. Its a surreal feeling.

>sell syrup for drinking
Are you retarded? All soda has syrup in it. Every single sugary drink that is not concentrate has syrup in it.

Horror hits differently at altitude, especially at night. Library of America Noir omnibus if you're taking a carry on rather than perusing the book store there.

>>24559113
There are even liquor versions.

>>24560125
This, any spy novel really (Le Carre). Crichton (Jurassic Park), Ludlum (Bourne series). Probably have omnibuses.

soda contains fizz and caffeine, faggot, for the same reason people don't like drinking straight water and go for carbonated, this is just sugar with citrus flavor

I can smell the McDonalds bags you have rotting in your room amerikkkan, soda is all carbonated drinks, you can make some yourself using fresh fruit and a little sugar if you're feeling a little childish. Corpo really has US people thinking their cheap consoomer optimized AB tested shit is all there is out there
