Can you find me a book for my holiday please?

[EmmaNZ]

I don't want anything too trashy, but my brain needs a rest and I can't handle anything too involved or 'difficult'. I usually like historical fiction, but have enjoyed most genres in the past, with the except of crime novels - I don't like to be scared!

 

Any ideas?

Here is a book I love:

"The Ladies' Auxiliary"

 

It follows an Orthodox Jewish community in the South through a story that is enhanced by descriptions of Jewish holiday celebrations.  The story itself has a lot of food for thought but it's not over the top.  Very well written.  Fiction.  Definitely a notch above a summer read, but no horror and really a pleasure to read.

Are you an Austen fan? I liked Longbourn by Jo Baker.

Released today.... Eligible

 

It's a modern retelling of Pride and Prejudice. I'm a few chapters in and enjoying it. Some language, some 'modern' situations, but it's keeping my attention.
