Could you lovely lot please recommend a series of books to help me regain my reading mojo. I loved reading the Cross Stitch series and The Earth's children novels - loved knowing there were more.

Which have been your favourites?

TIA x

I really enjoyed The All Souls Trilogy by Deborah Harkness. It consists of A discovery of witches, Shadow of night and The book of life.

I love the Rivers of London series, the Merily Watkins novels by Phil Tickman, the Chronicles of St Mary's by Jodi Taylor and the two series by Dorothy Dunnett.

Phil Rickman, not Tickman.

The Lydmouth novels by Andrew Taylor. Gentle crime and lots of 1950s observation.
