The best book I read whilst on holiday was Case Histories by Kate Atkinson.
This isn’t your normal run-of-the-mill private detective whodunit type book. It’s extremely entertaining, but then you realise you’ve been thinking about profound stuff like death and loss and love, really quite deeply.
One reviewer on the cover of the book summed it up really well by likening the experience of reading this book to being in a hall of mirrors. It’s just like that! Some strands of the story are obvious, but they just serve to blindside you when something unexpected is revealed, and you find yourself scooting back to earlier chapters to check.
A double thumbs up from me!
