While Ruiz Zafón's books are not literary masterpieces, they succeed in captivating readers so that they do not even desire to check their smartphones for notifications for hours at a time!

Summary | Travelling has been made easier by the digitalization - no doubt. But the sheer mass of information available to us has made us control freaks when it comes to traveling. We can research all the coolest hidden spots before we go someplace and then we end up hurrying from one place to another. Now travel guides are coming out that teach people how to give in to serendipity but planned serendipity kind of defeats the purpose.
