    Hi there

    Struggling recently to find a book I really LOVE! I love books that have a dark theme, love black humour, like supernatural things but not fantasy (dragons etc). I love books with female leads, about women but not romance (so not Marian Keyes type books). I like true stories too – nonfiction, narrative nonfiction, based on a true story etc.

    My favourite book is Let The Right One In. Some other books I’ve loved:
    World War Z – Max Brooks
    Perfume – Patrick Süskind
    Killers of the Flower Moon – David Grann
    George Saunders short stories
    Capote’s Women – Laurence Leamer
    Under the Skin – Michel Faber
    Never Let Me Go – Kazuo Ishiguro
    David Sedaris stories
    The Terror – Dan Simmons

    Currently reading I Am Legend and recently finished Julia by Sandra Newman, Woman Eating by Claire Kohda and I’m a Fan by Sheena Patel, all of which I enjoyed. Started Anxious People by Fredrik Backman to try to find something funny but did not like it, found it predictable and clumsy.
