First Among Sequels - Jasper Fforde
With the Mumsnet
Book Club already thriving, we thought it about time we started reviewing grown up books and for this category we're looking for books published in the last year or so that are easy reads, something uplifting to take to a sunny beach, or to pick up in a quiet moment at home (should you be lucky enough to have one of those). At some point when we've reached a critical mass we'll be handing out a dazzling literary award to the winning book (watch out Mr Booker) so please add as many reviews as you like and feel free to comment on other folks' choices. As ever, if you have any suggestions for new categories you'd like to see, please send them over to contactus@mumsnet.com.

Subtly (yet occasionally laugh out loud) funny, Jasper Fforde is the perfect compromise for parents with no attention span / energy for reading who don't want to be completely reduced to chick lit.
Latest in the 'Thursday Next' series, this is IMHO back to the standard of the first book and way better than #3 - and also features Thursday Next dealing with the challenges of being a WOHM. However, if you haven't read the others, start with The Eyre Affair.
Should also be compulsory reading for anyone living in Swindon!
