A good book to relax with. Low on the violence (the James Bond in the books doesn't have the tendency to destroy public property at the speed a modern film audience requires nowadays, mostly, he just does damage to his car and his liver). Apart from a few misogynistic sentences (you can get over those), it's very well written.
