If you’re looking for a meaty novel to sink your teeth in try The Signature of All Things by Elizabeth Gilbert, which our reviewer describes as a ‘sprawling story of botany, nineteenth-century scientific development, herbariums, sea voyages, love, death, old books and abolitionists’. Or Jhumpa Lahiri’s Booker Prize shortlisted The Lowland, which our reviewer calls ‘a wonderful novel of intricacy and, overall, compassion for those caught in changing times’. Or try Lucy Wood’s newly released Weathering, which the Guardian describes as ‘ a fine, strange novel about the pains of love between mothers and daughters.’
Looking to memoir, Katharine Norbury’s The Fish Ladder is a mix of travelogue, nature writing and poetry that has our School and Libraries Liaison Ann Le Lievre captivated (find out why here). There’s also Jesmyn Ward’s deeply personal and moving Men We Reaped, and Ann Patchett’s beloved essay collection This is the Story of a Happy Marriage.
Two stand-out non-fiction titles are Elizabeth Kolbert’s The Sixth Extinction: An Unnatural History, and Daniel Goleman’s Focus: The Hidden Driver of Excellence.
Bloomsbury crime authors include former Director General of MI5, Dame Stella Rimington (her most recent release is Close Call) and the bestselling author and screenwriter William Boyd (his most recent release is Restless).
If you’re shopping for children, there’s some adorable picture books (see Never Tickle a Tiger and Wanted! Ralfy Rabbit, Book Burglar) or perhaps your son or daughter is due to read their first Harry Potter book.
