Jezz, I recently read The Shakespeare Requirement and loved it!
I just finished Travelling with Pomegranates, by novelist Sue Monk Kidd and her daughter, Ann Kidd Taylor. It was a bit overwrought to me.

The Dream Daughter was just riveting. I was so sorry to finish it, because I was so involved in the story, and now I miss it!
I pre-ordered the new Liane Moriarty book, Nine Perfect Strangers, which is to be released tomorrow. Hopefully, it will fill the void, although so far the reviews are mixed.

I also pre-ordered the "Nine Perfect Strangers" audio book which comes out tomorrow. I hope it's good!
I was disappointed with "Truly, Madly, Deeply" because of the build up to the EVENT that was the premise of the whole book. Loved "The Husband's Secret", "Big Little Lies", and "What Alice Forgot" and was hoping for more of that, I guess.

Same here. I thought the topic was interesting, but I hated the backward format. It was annoying and unnecessary. Just tell the story. And the little twist at the very end was just not enough to make up for the weirdness of the format. It just fell flat.

I know I read Jewell's Ralph's Party a LONG time ago; not sure if I've read anything else by her.
