Agree with the Lost Man recommendation.  Also enjoyed Breath by Tim Winton.  It's about so much more than surfing - an immersive experience!

A great lockdown read has been The Lost Man by Jane Harper. The heat and isolation of the Australian outback are evoked throughout the novel. A farmer's body is found away from the family home but how did it get there? And why is his car found several kms away? His brother is determined to find out. Family secrets are gradually exposed in this great page turner that lead to a shocking end.

Just finishing Hamnet (Maggie O’Farrell) a popular choice on here. The title is a misnomer as it focuses more on Shakespeare’s wife than his son. Lots about plants and herbal medicines which can get a bit boring but overall it’s both an informative and entertaining read. (Nigel)

Butchers Crossing by John Williams. A meaty literate western. Reccomended (JJ).

Recently read Khaled Hosseini's And the mountains echoed - he is a wonderful writer. Just finished The Porpoise by Mark Haddon which was interesting, a weaving of different versions of a disturbing story. Early on I read quite a few of the Outlander novels by Diana Gabaldon, nothing like a bit of a historical romp to take your mind off things (and learn about history I knew nothing of) (Karen)

Got a get theroux this by Louis Theroux and JK Rowling issued a story online that she wrote for her children The ickabog. Its a lovel fairy story. I also read Normal People. Yes the tv programme was steamy, but I thought they could get over themselves a bit. I'm looking forward to click and collect opening and reading around the opium wars as the issues in Hong Kong has lifted my interest in the area so I thought I should find out a bit more.

Just started reading François-René de Chateaubriand's Memoirs from beyond the Grave, the first volume of his monumental autobiography in a relatively new translation by Alex Andriesse. Nothing beats French romanticism when overwhelmed by Welsh realism.

I disliked 'Normal people' when we read it for book group but loved the series.  Really enjoyed reading 'The Salt path' by Raynor Winn.

When the Sleeper Awakes, by H G Wells.  It was alright.  Interesting to see what he didn't predict about the future, as well as what he did...
