1. Looking for a quick, thrilling read? Read You Like It Darker by Stephen King
“Once again, the clue is in the name: King’s latest short stories are all on the darker side, and possibly some of his best work for a long while; a standout story is ‘Danny Coughlin’s Bad Dream’, the longest in the collection – but worth every word. As you would expect, the world-building is unrivalled, the characters feel real, and there’s so much to discover between the pages that you’ll just keep turning.”
2. Looking for a Booker Prize-worthy read? Read James by Percival Everett
“Retold from the perspective of Huck Finn's loyal companion, this coming-of-age story explores themes of friendship, race, and the complexities of the American South.”
3. Looking for a pacey crime thriller? Read Salute - The Last Espresso by Friedrich Kalpenstein
“Readers are enjoying this madcap detective crime thriller, the first part of the new regional crime series set on Lake Garda, in which Detective Paul Zeitler, former chief inspector from Munich, is on an Italian holiday that goes awry.”
4. Looking for a summer read that will keep you guessing? Read Truth, Truth, Lie by Claire McGowan
“One of the trends we’ve loved over the last few years has been the proliferation of ‘locked-room’ thrillers, and the latest from best-selling author Claire McGowan fits firmly in this trend. A group of university friends and their partners spend the weekend on a remote Scottish island, where a game of ‘two truths and a lie’ becomes something none of them could have expected – or is one of them behind it all? A tense, engaging thriller with twists and turns galore.”
5. Looking for an uplifting non-fiction read? Read Woman on Fire: All About the Fabulous Menopause by Dr. Sheila de Liz
“This guide from German gynaecologist Dr Sheila de Liz has been topping the German bestseller lists this summer with her positive guide to the menopause.”
6. Looking for a stirring summer novel? Read Tomorrow Can Come by Ildikó von Kürthy
“A critically acclaimed, wise-cracking novel from German journalist Ildikó von Kürthy, for and about women who step out of the shadows, end destructive relationships and take a leap into the unknown.”
