family saga type books

[careergirl]

I love these. Any recommendations (have read The Cazalets by the way) also the Woman of Substance books (and sequels)
something a bit Downton Abbey-ish would be the icing on the cake
any recommendations?

Definitely not downton but a great family saga, check out Tiger Hills. Fab.

The glass palace - beautiful book about a family's story through the generations

ooh thanks...off for a look

How about Netherwood and Ravenscliffe by Jane Sanderson.

Jennifer Donnelly, my old fave Rosamund Pilcher, Dilly Court Guilty pleasure!

Poldark - there are about 20 of them !

I'm reading Sarah Harrison at the moment. Swan Music, which links with the Nightingale Nest and the 3rd book with Swallows in the title.

I think she is a very good writer.

also used to read alot of Poldark which were good.

Also Susan Howatch with her Starbridge? series about the C of E from different characters are very interesting.

What about the Forsythe Saga by John Galsworthy? It was a great tv series and I thoroughly enjoyed the books beforehand.

How about Susan Howatch's Penmarric?

Penny Vincenzi The Spoils of Time trilogy, fab books.

How about Susan Howatch's Penmarric?

You beat me to it!

Also you might like R F Delderfields "A Horseman Riding By" series.

Another Rosamund Pilcher vote here.

I've read Spoils of Time trilogy and enjoyed it. I did read Penmarric years ago and vaguely remember enjoying it - I think I'll go back to it and re-read
Read most of Rosamunde Pilcher's but a few years since I read some of them and think I will have a re-read
thanks for the suggestions!
