You're settled into a spot by the pool ready for some serious tanning. You've got your shades, your hat and your MP3 player but - disaster - you realise you've left your novel in your room.
What to do? Step forward the Book Boys at the Paphos Amathus Beach Hotel in Cyprus - mini-mobile libraries from whom you can pick a novel from the comfort of your sun lounger and return once it's been read. With authors including John Grisham, Zadie Smith and JK Rowling, there are books to suit all tastes. And not having to bring a book on holiday means there's room in your suitcase for another pair of shoes.
