For nearly 10 years, I've had an LLBean rolling duffel bag that's been solid for all my travel needs. However, it finally started to give up, first with one of the wheels breaking into pieces.
So - I figured it was time for an upgrade. I like this suitcase from AWAY because it's a more traditional carry-on style suitcase. At the same time, it doesn't have a hard shell and is still small enough to fit overhead on most airlines.
I'm always on the hunt for new sci-fi books to read, which sometimes proves challenging given my specific taste. This book looks really interesting and up my alley.
