Holiday Reading

Any recommends for good holiday reads?

No chic lit please, crime, family stories, thriller type stuff.

I'm struggling to find something to get my teeth into.

Spare?

I kid, I kid.

Behind Closed Doors by BA Paris. I read it in a day.

I actually have an Instagram for reviewing books that I can send to you if you like? Mostly thrillers. I'm a harsh critic.

Hmmm, a lot of what I read is chicklit. But how about The Paper Palace or The Midnight Library? Both good, not chicklit.

I'm currently reading The Silent Patient by Alex Michaelides - it's absolutely brilliant!

I second the Paper Palace, a good holiday read and definitely not chick lit

Look for books written by Jane Fallon
Me Before You by Jojo Moyes
