Read any good books lately ?

[Lardlizard]

I’ve read the canoe widow book and enjoyed it and Lily Allen’s book

Elianor Oliphand is Completely Fine.

Without giving too much away it's a really, really good read. About a young woman who has had a terrible childhood and is quite 'odd' due to that...but as we read, we see her slowly begin to come out of the past and into the present and it's terribly uplifting. The horrible past isn't really discussed much....you just know it was there.

Sorry it's Oliphant not Oliphand! www.goodreads.com/book/show/31434883-eleanor-oliphant-is-completely-fine

I loved that one. I'm reading
Me before you

I've just finished "The Five" about the victims of Jack the Ripper. Loved it.

When you disappeared by John Marrs

Really enjoyed The Binding and also The Silent Companions.

The Five is very good. The Flatshare is very good fun. I also enjoyed The Hunting Party.

Recently I've enjoyed The Dutch House by Ann Patchett and Fingersmith by Sarah Waters

Loved perfect neighbour's by Rachel Sargent, just started the books that have inspired the vera program that seems good so far, also the boy or man I cant remember which but the boy we fell in love with, I finished that in about 4 days!

I'm enjoying Mum and Dad , by Joanna Trollope , very middle class but she is good at characters

Just finishing That Day In June by Martina Reilly. Easy to read but tackles homelessness and mental health.
Not read any of hers before but have really enjoyed it.

I just finished Do you dream of Terra-Two by Temi Oh.

It's technically a YA book but I enjoyed it for a bit of light relief.
I just wish it had been longer and continued the story a bit more.

The 10,000 doors of January and the starless sea were both great!
Also enjoyed The Binding but felt so much more could have been done with it!!

The Holiday!
