From thrillers to tear-jerkers, there's a novel here to suit every bookshelf...
Blood Orange by Harriet Tyce
BUY NOW Amazon, RRP £12.99
Good Housekeeping Books Editor Joanne Finney says: "A female barrister battles her demons in this heart-pounding thriller that will appeal to fans of Apple Tree Yard. She's a brilliantly flawed character and the plot is deliciously twisty."
If Only I Could Tell You by Hannah Beckerman
BUY NOW Amazon, RRP £14.99
Good Housekeeping Books Editor Joanne Finney says: "Sisters Jess and Lily haven't spoken since they were teenagers but only Jess knows why; now their mum is dying of cancer and determined to reunite them. Keep the tissues to hand – this is a real tear-jerker."
The Familiars by Stacey Halls
BUY NOW Amazon, RRP £12.99
Good Housekeeping Books Editor Joanne Finney says: "It's 1612, and 17-year-old wife and noblewoman Fleetwood Shuttleworth is childless, but pregnant for the fourth time, so employs midwife Alice Gray to help. But while Alice's potion-like 'tinctures' hold hope for Fleetwood, townsmen suspect Alice is one of the town's notorious witches. A truly spellbinding debut."
Late in the Day by Tessa Hadley
BUY NOW Amazon, RRP £16.99
Good Housekeeping Books Editor Joanne Finney says: "With fans including Hilary Mantel and Zadie Smith, it's hard to understand why Tessa Hadley isn't a household name.
"Late in the Day follows the lives of two close-knit couples who have known each other since university days, forever changed by an untimely death. The writing is lyrical, perceptive and has great emotional heft. Go read!"
The Age of the Light by Whitney Scharer
BUY NOW Amazon, RRP £12.99
Good Housekeeping Books Editor Joanne Finney says: "This captivating novel tells the story of the passionate love affair between Vogue model-turned-photographer Lee Miller and artist Man Ray. Its atmospheric descriptions of 1930s Paris made me feel as I had been there."
