spring reads - books books books

The sun is beginning to shine and sitting outside under the shade with a good book is one of our favourite spring pastimes.

Here is a list of five books to help you relax and unwind this month, available from all good bookstores:

 

hearts and minds by rosy thornton
hearts and minds

ISBN: 978-0-7553-3388-2

St Radegund’s College, Cambridge, which admits only women students, breaks with one hundred and sixty years of tradition by appointing a man, former BBC executive James Rycarte, as its new Head of House.

As Rycarte fights to win over the Fellowship in the face of opposition from a group of feminist dons, the Senior Tutor, Dr Martha Pearce, faces her own battles: an academic career in stagnation, a depressed teenage daughter and a marriage which may be foundering.

 
pagan in the city by cassandra eason

pagan in the city

ISBN: 978-0-572-03418-4

The pagan way is the much better way to live. Pagan comes from the Latin paganus, meaning country dweller. In modern terms it refers to anyone who follows the cycles of the seasons rather than becoming a slave to the clock in a frantic 24/7 activity cycle.

No matter that you live in a high-rise tower block in the city. Pagan in the City will show you how to become pagan by turning to nature and learning to love the natural rhythms that exist in crystals, the moon, the stars and the cycles of the sun and the seasons.

 
east of the sun by julia gregson

east of the sun

ISBN: 978-0-7528-7436-4

Autumn 1928. The Kaisar-i-Hind is en route to Bombay. In Cabin D38, Viva Holloway, an inexperienced chaperone, is worried she’s made a terrible mistake. Her advert in The Lady has resulted in three unsettling charged to be escorted to India.

Rose, a beautiful, dangerously naïve English girl, is about to be married to the cavalry officer she has met only a handful of times. Victoria, her bridesmaid, is determined to lose her virginity on the journey before finding a husband of her own in India.

Overshadowing all three of them, the malevolent presence of Guy Glover, a strange and disturbed schoolboy.

Janet Hardy was a Hollywood legend – glamorous, brilliant and deeply troubled – and she died in mysterious circumstances at her home, Little Farm.

As her granddaughter Cilla McGowan moves in to the rundown farmhouse, determined to restore it to its former glory, she finds herself dreaming of the grandmother she never really knew and wondering exactly what happened in her past.

As Cilla settles at Little Farm, growing ever closer to her neighbour Ford Sawyer, she slowly begins to unravel her family’s secrets.

 
love the one you're with by emily giffin
love the one youre with

ISBN: 978-0-7528-7582-8

It happened exactly one hundred days after she become Mrs Andrew Graham, almost to the minute. From the outside, it would have looked like a mundane urban snapshot: two seeming strangers, passing at an intersection, making fleeting eye contact. But inside was a very different story. Inside, Ellen was reeling as she made it onto the safety of the curb into a virtually-empty diner near Union Square.

For one hundred days, Ellen believed she had done the right thing – married the man of her dreams and embarked on the business of happy-ever-after. But one fleeting moment with an old lover, and Ellen is thrown into doubt.
