I love love love all her books.

Have read them all, a few over and over again. I get her books as soon as they come out and I'm disappointed that I read them so quickly!

I have a 7 month DS so finding time to read is difficult so a book has got to be worth it.

Any suggestions?

Thanks

Thank you.

I've read a few of her books, she is similar but a bit too girly! I love that Lisa can write from a males perspective.

Oops!

I enjoy her books, particularly loved The House We Grew Up In.

Not sure who is similar. Have you read early Joanna Trollope books?

So many favourites but try Ralph's Party and the follow up After the party- you will be hooked! Vince and Joy is another great one.

I've not read Joanna Trollope, maybe i'll try hers, which would you recommend?

I enjoyed A Village Affair, The Rector's Wife, The Choir, The Men and the Girls. I thought her later books were a bit older and more serious, but still enjoyed them.

Also try Erica James, can't think which at the moment, I'll have a think and let you know.

I also enjoyed some by Katie Fforde, especially her first few, like The Rose Revived.

I also love Lisa Jewell. Have you tried Emily Barr? I find she writes in a similar style. You might like her. I also find Louise Douglas very good and along similar lines.
