Claire Allan recommends
The Deadly Spark (2024)Roxie Key"A brilliant book, with first-class characterisation. The Deadly Spark is twisty, heart-breaking and compelling."Just Got Real (2022)Jane Fallon"I finally finished this BELTER of a read from Jane Fallon...It is FABULOUS - with such warmth and humour, and the usual dose of the dish that is best served cold. Just Got Real is the perfect summer read." The Wild Girls (2021)Phoebe Morgan"Phoebe gets better with each book. A claustrophobic and atmospheric look at toxic friendships, with a truly chilling conclusion." When They Find Her (2021)Lia Middleton"Had me hooked from the first page ... a gripping and twisty story of grief, fear and the fierce bond of motherhood." Below the Big Blue Sky (2020)Anna McPartlin"I read Below the Big Blue Sky in two days. My heart is full. I have laughed and cried and held my breath. This is a very worthy sequel to The Last Days of Rabbit Hayes, and the wonderful Anna Mcpartlin has proven once again what an incredible writer she is . . . An incredible story of grief, resilience and strength of character shot through with humour. Just brilliant." Strangers (2020)C L Taylor"Brilliant characters and a jaw-dropping denouement. I swear I hardly breathed for the last 100 pages. This one is going to be HUGE in 2020." The Sleepover (2019)Samantha King"Samantha King takes the worst fears and worries of parenthood and brings the reader to very dark places in this absolute page turner. It's fast-paced, relentlessly tense and terrifying." Rewind (2019)Catherine Ryan Howard"Claustrophic, terrifying, and most of all satisfying, Rewind sees Catherine Ryan Howard succeed in bringing something fresh and fierce to the crime genre once again. Totally gripping." The Flatshare (2019)Beth O'Leary"In the league of Bridget Jones and Marian Keyes' Walsh sister books... Fresh, funny and feel-good, The Flatshare is brilliantly written and the perfect antidote to any bad day. I loved it." Call Me Star Girl (2019)Louise Beech"It's a slow burn at first until it twists and turns at a head-staggering rate to a devastating climax. Original, moody and totally gripping." Cuckoo (2018)The Stranger in Our Home
Sophie Draper"A remarkably, taut and chilling debut. I absolutely loved it. Brilliant writing. All the creepiness. A heart-stopping ending." The Book of Love (2018)Fionnuala Kearney"The Book of Love is my book of the year. It deeply affected me with its exquisite portrayal of the highs and lows of a long-term relationship and the enduring power of love. Fionnuala Kearney writes with a depth of emotion that pulls the reader into the very heart of the story. Simply brilliant." One Little Lie (2018)Sam Carrington"A gripping read which moved at a head-spinning pace … I simply couldn't put this book down until I reached the dramatic and devastating conclusion. I've no doubt this will be one of the big reads of the summer." Visitors also looked at these authors
