If you’re anything like me you’ll understand that a ‘Top 5’ is basically impossible.
Not only am I fickle and easily distracted my memory is abysmal! Put me on the spot and you’ll be lucky to get five books I have read ever out of me let alone a comprehensive list that makes any sense.
With that in mind here is an imperfect, incomplete, in no way definitive ‘top 5’ of my favourite books right now.
- The Essex Serpent: Sarah Perry
- Norwegian Wood: Murakami
- Complicity: Iain Banks
- His Bloody Projects: Graham Macrae Burnet
- The Poisonwood Bible: Barbara Kingsolver
What books make it onto your ‘Top 5’, your desert island disks minus three, and are you a better, more decisive compiler than me?
