I love anything by Mark Billingham and Michael Connelly. Read and re-read Catrin Colliers books ( set in and around Pontypridd, Tonypandy and Swansea) . Currently reading book 3 of GoT but finding it so hard.

Also true crime stories especially Jack the Ripper.

Anything by Bernard Connell or if you want a more dark fantasy novel I'd recommend the night angel trilogy by Brent Weeks

I'm currently slogging through the hobbit in French but I love the English version. That and the book thief it's set in ww2 from death's perspective but much less morbid than it sounds.

Its a little slower to get going than Night Angel but definitely worth it

Still have that book on my reading bucket list along with lord of the rings. Shamefully never read them.

Loved the book theif. Definitely a good choice !

For a bit of light relief, try something from any of the following..

Tom Sharpe,

Tom Sheppard,

Tom Holt.. (erm, yes, I see it too lol)

or, if you want perfection in rib-tickling, the the obvious is Pratchett.

Dark Tower is currently being made into a film/series of films. Might be worth a watch.

Also, women seem to like Idris Elba and he's the main character

Robin hobbs books are brilliant if you like a bit of fantasy. Bought one in The Works, loved it, then realised there's about another 5 in the series but loved them all.

Day of the triffids is a fantastic book too.

The twelve caesers by seutonius sounds stuffy but it's a chapter on each caeser telling all the warts and gossip.

Blackwood

James Patterson or John Grisham if you ain't seen the films and no the ending
