I loved 'Particular Sadness of Lemon Cake' until the brother started turning into a chair (and other inanimate objects). That was taking 'magic realism' a little too far, I reckon!

I'm taking an intellectual hiatus and reading Diane Chamberlain books - I loved 'Fire and Rain'. I also read Katie Piper's 'Beautiful' because a friend asked me t, I never normally read misery memoirs) - and it was fantastic. I was in tears.
