A woman on a beach with a cocktail holding a book, green cover, The BBQ at No 9

If you loved The List of Suspicious Things, I can recommend The BBQ at No 9, Jennie Godfrey's latest release. Set on a Wimpey housing estate in 1987 during Live Aid, secrets simmer beneath the surface of a neighbourhood BBQ. For everyone who owned a Walkman or made a mixed tape.

Book cover Nesting by Roisin O'Donnell. Woman on a beach holding two young girls close to her. The Book is held up by a woman lying on a hot beach

If you enjoyed The Names by Florence Knapp, you'll love Nesting by Roisin O'Donnell. Challenging themes of domestic abuse and coercive control, set in contemporary Dublin.
Intense, emotional, compulsive. Loved it!!!
