|title=The Woman Who Stole My Life
|author=Marian Keyes
|rating=4.5
|genre=Women's Fiction
|summary=Stella is an author working on her second book. Though now back in Ireland, she talks of a life in New York. It sounds fabulous. But something has changed. Whatever it is, we’re not sure. Maybe the mighty have fallen, the stars have stopped colliding. Either way, that adventure is over as the book starts. It’s not where the story starts, though, and we’re soon plunged back into the past, with the events that have lead Stella to this point. First on the list, a serious illness, without which nothing that followed would have happened, or at least not in the way it did. This may sound confusing but the book is anything but, and despite its great length, I sped through it.

|summary=Tamsyn Thorne was not looking forward to returning to Cornwall for her brother Ruan's wedding. They had fallen out years ago and had not spoken since. However, for the sake of the family, she had agreed to attend, and even be a bridesmaid, but as far as she was concerned, she would leave the little Cornish village at the first opportunity.

|title=Goodbye Piccadilly
|rating=4
|genre=Historical Fiction
|summary=It's July 1914 and the world is becoming unsettled. There's fierce unrest brewing in Ireland and Sarajevo is being put on the map for all the wrong reasons. Back in England life is continuing as usual – at the moment. Viscount Dene, Charles Wroughton wants to marry for love rather than materialism. Laura Hunter is fighting for women's suffrage. As for Beattie Cazalet, her main worry is the rumour concerning the manner in which her servant Ethel is carrying on in public. All fears are about to deepen and worries put in sharp relief though: war is coming and a war like none the world has fought before.
