Midnight Sun by Jo Nesbo

I loved this book: the atmosphere, the people, the story, the pacing, the conclusion. Do I need to say more?

A book which is ostensibly about family but has a deeper discussion at its core involving humans and the way we treat other animals

A collection of poems which is witty and wise and very easily accessible – amusing and philosophical

A book about life, regrets and choices which has humour and warmth and prompts discussion about how life can best be lived

A wonderful book compiled from a collection of letters, depicting the time Isabella Bird spent in the Rockies in the 1800s

Police thriller set in Rome with engaging characters, sharp dialogue and lots of action-a modern thriller but filled with echoes of the past

Friends perform a ritual, entering their treasured items into a box buried in the woods. It must remain undisturbed or… So who opened it?

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

Malouf retells, in his own words but with the air of the original Homer, the story of Priam and Achilles and the ransom for Hector’s body

A well-paced book which crosses genres into post-war thriller, murder mystery and amateur detective fiction with the odd historical cameo
