THE HAPPY EVER


AFTER PLAYLIST

This quirky love
story comes highly
recommended by Beth O’Leary, author
of the hugely successful novel The
Flatshare, who called it “sweet and
achingly romantic”. That’s good
enough for us!
It follows Sloan, whose life falls
apart after she loses her fiancé, but
slowly comes together again upon
a chance meeting with an adorable
dog. And when she meets a fellow
pooch-owner, Jason, it soon turns to
puppy love. But with Jason’s career
taking off – can Sloane risk another
heartbreak? (We imagine yes...)

A good page-turner is
hard to find, but this
one is a must if you’re
after complex characters,
killer twists and
drama aplenty.
In a tranquil, leafy
suburb, an anonymous
note is left at the homes
of several residents,
worded, “I’m so sorry.
My son has been getting
into people’s houses.
He’s broken into yours.”
So far, so creepy.
But when a missing local woman is found murdered, tension
reaches breaking point – who’s to blame? What
secrets are people hiding and what’s the
note got to do with it? One thing’s clear,
not everyone’s playing happy neighbours.
This is the fourth thriller from Shari,
who has firmly established herself
as the go-to writer when it comes to
fast-paced, twisty novels – perfect
escapism for these testing times!

ABOUT IT


Posh journalist Sophia
goes all Jilly Cooper on
us with her latest book,
which arrives in paperback
next week.
What Happens Now?
tells the tale of Lil and the
first date that changes her
life forever thanks to an
unplanned pregnancy
and a lot of money.
This saucy story will have you in fits of
laughter as our heroine navigates the trials
of motherhood, co-parenting with someone
who could well turn out to be Prince
William’s BFF and the challenges of modern
sex and dating. Move over, Bridget Jones!

Never have we needed good books more! Here’s our pick
of the best novels to devour during lockdown

Multi-talented married maestros Tom
and Gi have somehow found the time
to write the second part of their Eve
Of Man trilogy, in between hanging
out with royals, making albums and
raising three kids. An impressive feat
considering we can barely make
a cup of tea and write this page.
(Lockdown lethargy, anyone?) Mind
you, this story has woken us up.
The dystopian drama follows Eve,
the last girl on Earth, who must
decide between the love of her life
and the fate of humanity. As we rejoin
her, Eve’s in more danger than ever...
