I loved Alison Irvine’s novel #CatStep a few years ago, and was delighted to receive a proof of her latest, #Daughterhood, which boasts the most beautiful cover.

Protagonist Nina is 46 (as am I) and is grappling with wayward parents, a complex relationship with her sister, being back in touch with the first man she loved, and the perimenopause. And honestly, it’s just brilliant.

Christie Watson recently sent me a books and chocolate care package that included #QuiltonFire, a non-fiction book of hers, and I read it in hospital and found it was just what I needed.

#AReuniontoDieFor is a gripping thriller that follows five former schoolfriends and moves between a school reunion in the present day and their school prom twenty years earlier.

#SoIMetthisGuy is a fun revenge story with a number of great European settings. Maggie has been scammed by a man who claimed to love her, and together with young journalist Flick, who’s desperate to write a breakout story, she sets out to track him down.

I love that you always know you’re going to get something a bit different with a @SarahPinborough novel. #TheySayaGirlDiedHere has a small-town America setting, and young protagonist Anna is trying to work out whether the right man was blamed for the murders of two young women.

#VersionsofaMurder is outstanding. It’s about a female junior doctor in the 70s and a Shipman-type doctor colleague intent on murdering her, and it has a speculative, time-resetting element.

Does a house keep hold of dark secrets? That’s the question at the heart of #BuyerBeware, in which a woman moves into a house with a murky past. She has secrets of her own, of course, having moved in with a single suitcase and no furniture. I found this compelling and immersive.
