Ruth Ware Book Recommendations & Book Mentions

Old favorites that I like to dip back into after a hard day — “Howl’s Moving Castle,” by Diana Wynne Jones, would fall into that category.

Here's the thing - a lot of Austen is funny, but Persuasion isn't. It's sad, wistful and full of regret. If Netflix want a funny regency novel for the Bridgerton treatment, why not go with Northanger Abbey? Or literally ANY Georgette Heyer who has about 7 million unadapted books?

Very late to the party but I just read Recursion by @blakecrouch1 as a little break from crime, and wow, what an excellently twisted thriller. Mind-bending in the best sense.

Look what was waiting for me when I got back from my US tour! The gorgeous UK edition of The It Girl. There's still time to pre-order signed copies from Waterstones, or my local indy @CityBooksinHove - https://www.city-books.co.uk/products/pre-order-the-it-girl-by-ruth-ware-signed https://t.co/r6oIeEcFEI

@Dwaterhousebook A book of mine, or in general? Of mine, they could start with any, I'd just go with whatever setting most appeals. In general, Erin Kelly's The Skeleton Key is great

Seven Days in June by Tia Williams is a heady combination of book love and between-the-sheets love.

The book I’m reading at the moment is Alias Emma by Ava Glass, which is excellent escapism.

On what book got her hooked on psychological thrillers: "My entry drug, one of the first real “crime” stories I encountered, was Arthur Conan Doyle’s “The Adventure of the Speckled Band.” My mum read it to me and my sister as a bedtime story…and I had nightmares for weeks."
