'Mature' chick lit with feisty female protagonists. Highly recommend this one.
Chesapeake Blue (Quinn Brothers)Chesapeake Blue (Quinn Brothers) by Nora Roberts
Buy used from: £0.01
The last in the brilliant 'Chesapeake Bay' series. This one focuses on Seth, but definitely read them all- you won't be sorry, Nora Roberts at her finest in my opinion.
Shopaholic AbroadShopaholic Abroad by Sophie Kinsella
Buy new: £4.96 / Used from: £0.01
I'd love to go shopping with Becky Bloomwood- especially in New York. Witty and romantic, and who wouldn't love their own Luke Brandon?

There's a magical aspect to Jones' novels and this is no exception.
WanderlustWanderlust by Danielle Steel

Some of Steel's appear a bit 'same-same' after a while, but this has a bit more substance to it.

More 'mature' chicklit- family secrets, romance and the enviable backdrop of Bali.

This book got me reading Fforde's novels but so far this is the one I've enjoyed the most.
Twilight (Twilight Saga)Twilight (Twilight Saga) by Stephenie Meyer

Romance with a bite- interesting theme and the best in the series; I got bored by the time the final book came along... but you'll want an Edward Cullen of your own!
Gardens Of DelightGardens Of Delight by Erica James

A tour of the Italian Lakes is interwoven throughout this novel- James' descriptions are beautiful and her characters well developed.

Cathy Kelly always manages to write characters you'd want to be your own close friends and leave you feeling satisfied at the tale's conclusion.

I adore Jane Green's earlier stuff and this is smart and sassy.
Far from OverFar from Over by Sheila O'Flanagan

The theme of the 'second wife.' Cleverly written as most of O'Flanagan's books are.
The Yorkshire Pudding ClubThe Yorkshire Pudding Club by Milly Johnson

I didn't expect to like this as much as I did. Worth a look.
Revenge of the Middle-aged WomanRevenge of the Middle-aged Woman by Elizabeth Buchan

I MUST get around to reading the rest of Buchan's novels. This focuses on the dilema of Roses' husband having an affair with her best friend.

A clever premise- you really feel like you start to know the characters over the course of this novel.

Forget the horror that was the film with Hilary Swank- the book is far superior. A real tear-jerker.
My Best Friend's GirlMy Best Friend's Girl by Dorothy Koomson
Buy new: £5.00 / Used from: £0.01
I heart this book and all of her others.
Garden SpellsGarden Spells by Sarah Addison Allen

A beach book- fluffy and amusing in places.
