I just finished reading Our Man In Havana which I loved. I never really got into fiction and wasn't familiar with Graham Greene before Potions of the Caribbean made mention of him and that book specifically. Now I want more like this. Seems most everything Greene wrote was adapted into a movie so presumably they're all good. What would be the next few to read from him?

And what about Hemingway? Where to start? I've honestly never read a word he's written. Yes, I know, shameful.

I just ordered a vintage copy of Kon-Tiki off of ebay and plan to follow it up with Aku-Aku. I know, I'm behind the times.

Other books on my list that I've seen recommended on TC are Michener's South Pacific and Palisades Park by Alan Brennert.

Just looking for anything fun to read that in some way involves cocktails, tiki, the caribbean, south pacific, adventure, etc...

EDIT: Not sure if this post was better here or here:

Just didn't want to start another book thread. Feel free to move this if Beyond Tiki is more appropriate.
