The sun has finally come out, and that can mean only one thing… the Bookends Beach Party is back!
Each week we’ll be asking some of our favourite authors to share their summer essentials – from holiday routines to travel bucket lists. First up, we have Sheila O’Flanagan, Ruth Hogan and Rosanna Ley sharing their must-reads for summer 2019…
Sheila O’Flanagan, author of Her Husband’s Mistake
- Rules of the Road by Ciara Geraghty
- The Perfect Wife by JP Delaney
- The Birthday Party by Roisin Meaney
Rosanna Ley, author of The Lemon Tree Hotel
I am most looking forward to reading The Salt Path by Raynor Winn which fortunately has also been nominated by my Book Group for July. It is autobiographical and about two people who have not only been made homeless but also received some other devastating news. They decide to walk the South West Coast Path (630 miles) while they decide what to do. I am fortunate enough to live beside this coastal path in West Dorset and I walk part of it most days (a very small part usually). The story sounds emotional and fascinating and I can’t wait to get started…
Ruth Hogan, author of Queenie Malone’s Paradise Hotel
- The Garden of Lost and Found by Harriet Evans
- Thursday Nights at the Bluebell Inn by Kit Fielding
- 59 Memory Lane by Celia Anderson
And don’t forget your tickets for our Bookends Girls’ Night In, a summery evening of great books and goodies, in partnership with Prima and Sanctuary Spa!
