I need a gripping, totally in your face you can't put it down book!

[hk1993x]

Hi all

I'm being admitted to hospital for a few weeks and was looking for some books to take with me.

Nothing sad. I like stuff like "this is going to hurt" or a guilty pleasure something naughty and dramatic.

Any recommendations please x

Just read Strange Sally Diamond due to the recommendations on here. I LOVED it!

Right that’s next for me so! Thanks for the recommendation. I recommended FingerSmith to a few of my friends last night so hopefully they will all love it too.

Just read American Dirt. Thank you to all of you who recommended it.
Wow.

Me too!!

The r4 series is available too!

Great! I loved it! Glad you rated it too

The Magpies by Mark Edwards

Anything by Lianne Moriarty but I particularly enjoyed The Last Anniversary

Just read Lisa Jewell's none of this is true- excellent stuff !

The Bee Sting by Paul Murray was amazing, my book club loved it and we all couldn't put it down. It's one of my all time favourite reads

The silent patient

Tomorrow, tomorrow, tomorrow

The Trial - Robert Rinder

Eleanor Oliphant is completely fine

I really enjoyed this

I loved Tommorow tommorow tommorow!! @CheekySwan Do you think i'd also like 'The trial'?

Dead of Winter - Darcy Coates. My mouth dropped open a couple of times!

Haven't read through the whole thread so apologies if already been mentioned but Undoctored by Adam Kay is hilarious.

It's completely different, but it's really good. and the silent patient

Hunting evil is good

Just finished the Sweetpea series, 5 books. It's Bridget Jones meets Dexter/American Psycho. Seriously bloody dark humour. I devoured them!!

Oo yes to Eleanor!

Oh I loved these so, so much. Feel bereft now I’ve finished them!

So much better than the series!

Yeah I didn't realise they'd dramatised it! Not worth the time?

It’s had mixed reviews, but she’s nothing like Rhiannon and is just a wet mess with homicidal impulses

Ugh...

Anything by Lisa Jewell.

Madeleine L'Engle----I think this book is perfect for you. Wishing you a speedy recovery!

Agree, is brilliant

Kala is also brilliant. Probably my top read this year
