If you don’t mind the copaganda aspect, Ben Aaronovich’s Rivers of London series is pretty fun and a pretty loving portrait of London as a city. Detective novels meet fantasy/magic.

Oh, lucky you! A fascinating city with much to do.
Tons of books set in London. Some are:
* *Oliver Twist* (and most of Dickens’ other work), by Charles Dickens
* *Bridget Jones’s Diary*, by Helen Fielding
* *Wolf Hall* (and the rest of the trilogy), by Hilary Mantel
* *London*, by Edward Rutherfurd
* *Tinker, Tailor, Soldier, Spy*, by John le Carré
Don’t forget juvenile literature, too.
* *A Bear Called Paddington*, by Michael Bond
* *Mary Poppins*, by P.L. Travers
