If I devoured All the Light We Cannot See...

[Fwend]

...everything by Donna Tartt, Victoria Hislop, CJ Sansom, Sebastian Faulks and Sarah Waters, what will I love next?

I'm pregnant, poorly and bored. Please recommend me something you loved!

Kate Atkinson? The Goldfinch.

Kate Atkinson - Life After Life. I couldn’t put it down.

Light Between The Oceans by M.L. Stedman.

Thank you! I loved The Goldfinch. I was genuinely sad when I came to the end.

I'll have a look at your suggestions.

The girl you left behind by Jojo Moyes
He said she said by Erin Kelly
Lie with me by Sabine Durrant
The Bourbon Theif by Tiffany Reid
The Invention of wings by Sue Monk Kidd
The secret life of bees by Sue Monk Kidd

I have just started All the light we cannot see.

Oh following

Any Human Heart - William Boyd

Handful of dust - Evelyn Waugh
A Kind of Loving - Stan Barstow

I was coming on to say the light between oceans. I loved that book.

It's a bit different to some you've listed but Purple Hibiscus by chimande-adiche is stand out for me.

Sounds like we have very similar taste .. I’ve just finished The Ballroom by Anna Hope which I loved. Currently reading The Danish Girl but I’m not quite as enamoured by that.

Also loved The Bees by Laline Paull. Different to anything else I’ve ever read but couldn’t put it down and found it really intriguing.

Following too; it sounds like we have the exact same taste and I’m in need of a new read!

Have you read The Lose Wife by Alyson Richman? Also Mudbound by Hillary Jordan

That’s the LOST wife, not lose wife!!

Ooh those are all right up my street. Following this thread with interest.
Hand you read My Cousin Rachel? I was gripped by that.

I’m reading Truly Madly Guilty by Liane Moriarty just now which is also good

Another vote for My Cousin Rachel too.

False Lights by K J Whittaker if you like convoluted plots.

I loved My Cousin Rachel.

Some great suggestions here, thank you! My amazon account is going to take a bashing.

I've just finished Camino Island today for a quick, easy read. I liked it, although now I'm craving sunshine.

I've got Magpie Murders, Eleanor Oliphant is Completely Fine, and Women & Power on my bedside table - those, plus recommendations above will keep me busy. Thank you!

You absolutely have to read A Little Life by Hanya Yanagihara if you like Donna Tartt.

It’s 700 pages but I honestly wished it was longer!!

700 pages? Count me in!

I have very similar taste and was just going to say A Little Life. Did think it could have been a little shorter but it was beautiful (and harrowing).

I’ve just bought A Little Life, thanks for the recommendations.
I haven’t read it for years but it might be worth a few of you checking out What I Loved by Siri Hustvedt. I might re read it soon. The characters are brilliant and it’s a bit Donna Tart-esque.

OP, based on your list I would recommend:

Cloud Atlas - David Mitchell
The Poisonwood Bible - Barbara Kingsolver
The Children’s Book - AS Byatt
A Constellation of Vital Phenomena - Anthony Marra

Definitely the Poisonwood Bible if you haven't read it.

I've just finished the Muse by Jessie Burton which was great (and I much preferred it to her previous book, which I was slightly disappointed by).
Commonwealth, by Anne Patchett.
A Little Life, which someone recommend up thread, is a very good book, but incredibly harrowing. Not sure I could have coped with it with pregnancy hormones too (though I was on bedrest for a fair bit of pregnancy, so can definitely see the appeal of 700 pages!).
