Does size matter?

pbrayWhen I was packing for last week's vacation, picking clothes was the easy part. Picking which books to bring involved a considerable dilemma.
The next book in my TBR stack was THE GIRL WHO KICKED THE HORNETS' NEST. If I'd been taking a car vacation I would have brought it, but I couldn't quite convince myself to bring it on a plane trip. My carry-on was heavy enough, and it didn't make sense to pack this book in my suitcase and then start reading a mass market paperback on the plane.
If we'd gone near a bookstore in Florida I would likely have given in and bought a second copy of it, knowing I could always pawn a copy off on a friend, but turned out there was no reading time on this trip other than the plane flights, so in the end it probably worked out for the best.
