I want to read something really intelligent and beautifully written

[SalveRibena]

I have been reading crap on my Kindle for too long and now want to go back to reading Proper Books. Past favourites include Atonement, Bring Up The Bodies, The Poisonwood Bible, The Sea and The Line of Beauty.

Any advice?

The Bridge of San Luis Rey by Thorton Wilder

Apologies if already mentioned but absolutely anything by Kate Mosse, she is incredible!!
