Fans of The Great British Bake Off, especially fans who have just started to notice how wobbly the show has got without her.

This debut novel comes from the comedian and former Bake Off co-host Mel Giedroyc, one half of Mel and Sue. I loved seen seeing Sally’s character grow; from a spoiled lady to trying to take control of the situation. Weaving a journey from lively beginning to gentle end, this heartwarming bedtime tale is perfect for children with new siblings and will calm sleepy unicorns everywhere!When Alan, a self-styled evil lunatic, moves in next door with his grumpy robot sidekick and his silent right-hand dog, Kevin Phillips, Wilf knows he will have to find a way to overcome his fears. Both Gary’s elderly neighbour and the mystery woman are more than happy to veer off on long, absurd tangents about oddly worded minutiae. The former spy who belongs to the Thursday Murder Club is Elizabeth, not Joyce as an earlier version said. The only ally Wilf has in his desperate struggle to put a stop to Alan's ridiculous-but also quite upsetting, really, when you think about it-plans to destroy the world is his little sister, Dot (and her trusty "blanky," of course). Writing style Love Untold has a plot, but its real joy is in how Jones digs her fingernails into decades of complicated family history.

This time, a local news presenter investigating VAT fraud is run off the road and over the edge of a cliff on the A20 near Dover. He also has the exact same cadence, vocabulary and thought processes as Mortimer, as seen in his long digressions about pies. He spends chapter after chapter making doubly sure you feel the way he wants you to feel about each character before dropping his bomb.

Cover quote “His grasp of human loneliness and longing is beautiful and comforting” – Marian Keyes (again).

Mel has also touched on mental health of Sally and her family; which I found interesting because each one is suffering in some way and has been written with care and shows a light at the end of the tunnel. In interviews, Giedroyc has spoken of her desire to turn The Best Things into a “Leatherhead Trilogy”. A nice piece of escapism, so needed at this time ****''Warm, interesting, clever and funny, as well as poignant at times. In this funny, revealing and heart-warming travelogue, the two friends walk in the footsteps of Meryl Streep’s French Lieutenant’s Woman, gulp down lashings of ginger beer on a steam train ride through Enid Blyton country and enjoy a boat trip to the world-famous Durdle Door on the breathtaking Jurassic coast which ultimately proves challenging for the sea-sick Mel despite Martin’s best efforts at distracting her by reading bursts of Thomas Hardy.

The risk here would be to boil down at least one of the generations to stereotype, but Jones fiercely resists this.

Plot A fiftysomething woman is devastated when her partner is diagnosed with dementia and his children turf her out of the home they shared.

If I had to guess, I’d say every single woman who owns a cat will have this pressed into her hands over the next few months. No soggy bottoms here' CLARE MACKINTOSH__________Sally Parker is struggling to find the hero inside herself.Sally soon finds out a few secrets her husband has been keeping from her and she puts her life before in question. Mel has written two non-fiction books and has appeared in sitcoms and panel shows, as well as on radio and on stage, most notably in Stephen Sondheim's Olivier Award-winning Company in the West End.
