Praise for Emily Bell

A refreshing romance filled with holiday spirit and second chances. The descriptions of Dublin at Christmas time alone will leave you longing for your very own trip . . .

Cosy up with this fab festive read!

Tremendous fun, with a big heart and gorgeous locations to get lost in - it's the perfect uplifting Christmas read, unashamedly romantic and beautifully written. Emily is this year's Queen of Christmas!

The perfect festive treat! I really enjoyed Emily Bell's believable, sympathetic characters and her sensitive and wise writing about friendship and bereavement which deliver richness and depth to a charming love story

Captures the magic of Christmas in Dublin perfectly! A heartfelt and irresistibly romantic read to cosy up with over the festive season

A heartbreaking and heartwarming read that deals sensitively with difficult issues

A modern love story that's heartbreakingly tender & poignant. It kept me guessing & hoping until the last page. A fabulous read

Praise for Rachel Marks

Wise and wonderful. I adored it

Rachel Marks packs a novel with all the emotions - hope, fear, love, despair and - ultimately - joy

Heartbreaking, heartwarming, perfect

Heartbreaking and hopeful; this book is a keeper

Unpredictable and satisfying

Beautifully uplifting and at times unexpected

As tender and emotional as it is funny, it made me laugh out loud A LOT, and it made me sob

Heartbreaking, funny and emotive

A truly ambitious attempt to compare the way people in the East and the West dream . . . Delicate and subtly tantalising in the way only a book can really be

It is almost as if when everyone is flashing De Beers diamonds, Mishra traps the quiet luminescence of the moonstone in his theme and style

Mishra's writing has a lovely potency . . . subtly layered and compelling

Impressive . . . The Romantics turns its back on the exotic richness and the "teeming" panoramic quality which we readily assume to be expressive of Indianness itself

A first novel whose achievement is something that most writers could be proud of at any stage in their careers

Another brilliant tale from best-selling author Jane Fallon

Brilliant

PRAISE FOR JANE FALLON

Another Fallonesque treat. Full of heart, humour and humanity. She's so good at tapping into the best and the worst in us. Fabulous

Funny, insightful, sharp, wicked, brilliant

Intelligent, edgy and witty

We adore Jane Fallon's novels, and this witty page-turner could be her best yet

Ingenious. Her eye for detail, compressed emotion and the absurdity that lurks beneath what people say to each other, is unerring. One of our very finest comic novelists

I LOVE her books. She always delivers a fabaliss read

A romcom with attitude

Jane Fallon is cool as f***

Ingenious . . . This is one book you can't miss out on. Moriarty has an extraordinary talent. Thrilling

There is not a word wasted. I could not put it down

The ending is witty and satisfying, but comes with a dark twist. Apples Never Fall is another enjoyable offering full of intrigue, suspense and surprises, sure to delight

Praise for Liane Moriarty

Wise, honest, beautifully observed. One of the few writers I'll drop anything for

Staggeringly brilliant, literally unputdownable

Keeps you guessing until the very end - perfect summer read

Moriarty writes vividly, wittily and wickedly

Straight-from-life characters, knife-sharp insight and almost unbearable suspense will have you racing through it

As brilliantly accomplished as it is dark, twisty and compulsive

A hell of a good book. Funny and scary

Riveting drama packed with suspense and secrets

Like drinking a pink Cosmo laced with arsenic . . . a fun, engaging and sometimes disturbing read

Perfect

Fascinating and compassionate

I loved every line of it

Funny and captivating

A cracking story cleverly told

It would be easy to compare Straub to other masters of the genre like Meg Wolitzer or Jennifer Egan, but she's already a master in her own right

Emma Straub is such a funny and brilliant writer and this time-travelling tale is a charming exploration of what it would be like to find yourself younger and surrounded by the people you love when they're still at the height of their power

Wise and often hilarious

Readers will devour this witty and warmly satisfying novel

A precise and observant writer whose supple prose carries the story along without a snag. Straub's characters are a quirky and interesting bunch . . . it's a pleasure spending time with them

Devilishly observed

Sprinkled with humour and insight

Straub is consistently excellent
