When in Spain reading list: 16 must-read books on Spain

With the Summer holiday season just around the corner, you might be contemplating which books to pack to while away the hours while relaxing or travelling. Assuming you're a big fan of Spain, I've put together a 'When in Spain Reading List' of 16 of my favourite reads about Spain. My recommendations include books on Spanish history and society, light reads about moving and adapting to life in Spain, Flamenco, The Moors, culinary tradition and a great Spanish recipe book, that's a must-have if you love cooking Spanish food! I'll give you a background to each book, read you some excerpts and give you my review of them too. So if you need some recommendations, here are mine!
