My dad has been raving about her so just ordered a couple of her books....The Island and The Thread.

Has anyone read her books?? If so did you love them, hate them or anything inbetween :)

Is The Return the Spanish civil war one? In which case I thought it was the best of the three. The Island was a bookclub one and interesting but not great writing.

She tends to take a bit of a bashing on here Grin.

Personally I really enjoyed The Island but I then read The Return which I thought was utter toss! Haven't read The Thread so will be interested to hear what those who have thought of it.
