Recommend me a book please

[tiredalot]

Trying to find a good book. Have just read Khaled Hosseinis The Kite Runner and A Thousand Splendid Suns. Found both books extremely moving and need a really good book to follow up.
I also love Philippa Gregory and enjoy reading from a women's perspective so loved her Tudor novels. If that gives you an idea of what I would like. TIA

I love Phillip Gregory and really enjoyed the trilogy by Elizabeth chadwick: Autumn Throne, Winter Crown and Summer Queen.

Have you read The Island by Victoria Hislop? I also enjoyed The Help and Eleanor Oliphant is completely fine.

The poisonwood bible by Barbara Kingsolver
Small island by Andrea Levy

I loved both of those books.

I recently read Maya Angelou’s first autobiography (why the caged bird sings) and would really recommend it. I’m currently working through the rest of her series of autobiographies which are just as interesting and well written.

Other good books from a female perspective that I’ve recently read are:

• How to build a girl by Caitlin Moran
• Eleanor Oliphant is completely fine by Gail Honeyman
• Room by Emma Donoghue
• Wild by Cheryl Strayed

Other books that I’ve found really moving are the tattooist of auschwitz and all the light we cannot see. And anything by paolo coehlo!

Would love to hear any of your recommendations in return

I love....

Eva Luna

Lorna Doone. I can read them over and over.

The Book Thief.

The Time Traveller's Wife.

Just started the other half of Augusta Hope, it's good so far.

Also Lion by Saroo Brierley!

And the shock of the fall by Nathan Filer. I’ll stop now. Happy reading!

I just read The Binding which is fantastic

PG’s novel A Respectable Trade about the slave trade is v good too.

Have you read any Kate Atkinson? Or Sarah Walters?

Where the crawdads sing by Delia Owens

If you like Phillips Gregory I would recommend the familars - I couldn't put it down after the first couple of chapters ...historical fiction around witch trials

I'm reading a five box set by Philippa Gregory at the moment. The White Queen etc. All brilliant.

Just finished Longbourn by Jo Baker. A downstairs version of Pride & Prejudice. Also brilliant.

I've just finished Never anyone but you by Rupert Thomson. Based on true characters, set in Paris from the 1910s onwards.

Yy to Barbara Kingsolver and also Ann Patchett. I loved Bel Canto and have read some of her others and I'm hooked.

Sleepers Castle was very good.

Wakenhyrst by Michelle Paver.
Old Filth by Jane Gardam.
Mothers Day by Graham Swift.
Olive Kitteridge by Elizabeth Strout.
