I've enjoyed most of her books, I abandoned one about an elderly hoarder who died as it was like wading through treacle, but that one aside I like her writing style and content.

I've exhausted her books now and would appreciate any recommendations please?

Another vote for Lucy Dawson, and throwing in KL Slater.

The hoader one is really frustrating but also incredibly sad.

Shari lapini, Harriet Tyce ( blood orange) Lucy foley, Clare Allan. Read books by all of these on holidays this year.

As someone else said B.A Paris absolutely loved those books, other authors I enjoy are:
Daniel Hurst
Claire Douglas
Cara Hunter
Katerina Diamond
Jenny Blackhurst
Ruth Ware
Harlan Coben

I love Lisa Jewell when I’m in the right mood! Similar are Shari Lampana, Adele Parks, Harriet Tyce, Liane Moriarty is fab, Sophie Hannah, a book called the wife between us, I think the hoarder one was the house we grew up in - I really enjoyed that one.

I love Lisa Jewell. Out of interest, which is the one about hoarding?

I've enjoyed books by Eve Chase, Lianne Moriarty, Nicci French, Shari Lapena, Adele Parks, Lin Anderson, Tess Stimson, Ruth Ware.

@rookiemere I used to love Marian Keyes, I'd forgotten about her!

@GhoulNightWine I've enjoyed CL Taylor as well, but as you say not quite as good.

Thanks for the recommendations, I'll get stuck in.

Marian Keyes - completely different style, but I like both authors so you might too.

GhoulNightWine · 06/12/2022 19:31

BA Paris is the author who got me started on these sorts of books. Brilliant reads.
I've recently read some CL Taylor ones - ok but not as good.

Try Adele Parks too OP

Letsgotitans · 06/12/2022 19:25

Letsgotitans · 06/12/2022 19:23

Ive enjoyed Ruth Ware and also Lucy Foley, too.
