gods in Alabama by Joshilyn Jackson

Why doesn’t Lena want to go home to Possett, Alabama? A book which explores the past, growing up, rites of passage and the ties that bind

Another great book from John Boyne which took me through the full range of human emotions, and the life and loves of Cyril Avery

Family is family -nothing can be done about it. In this novel, Haddon shows how dysfunctional it can be whilst making a warm and funny tale.

An honest, sometimes excruciatingly so, collection of personal essays, which is also incredibly witty and made this reader laugh out loud

A book for our times, where the traditional roles and perceptions of women are discussed through the lives of Tara, Cam and Stella

A strange little book, crammed with notes written by flatmates with witty and irreverent discussion of and conjecture about, their contents

A story of a man who withdraws himself from life after the death of his wife, told with acerbic wit and unreserved intelligence

Truly a tale for our social media dominated times, this book is full of satire and humour with a strong end message

One line cannot do this story justice – a tale of a young girl in a life that no young girl should ever encounter.

A story about family, relationships and secrets, told with humour and emotion with all the hallmarks of Moriarty’s entertaining style
