In a desperate bid to find a book that I will thoroughly enjoy. I love romance, historical, and biographical. I love Jane Austen and had read all her books. I also loved 'The Whalebone Theatre'. Struggling to find any books I enjoy. Please recommend any books even if they are in a different category to what I do like!
