The Street Lawyer by John Grisham
Michael Brock is in a hurry. He's in the fast lane at Drake and Sweeney, a giant Washington law firm. He's a rising star, with no time to waste, no time to toss a few coins into the hands of beggars. No time for a conscience. But a chance violent encounter with a homeless man stops him cold. The fallout propels him onto a trail of corruption and illegality which leads straight back to Drake and Sweeney. To get to the truth, Michael will have to dig deep into some of his own firm's dirtiest secrets...
'No one does it better than Grisham. This latest novel is as unputdownable as ever.' - Daily Telegraph

Second Honeymoon by Joanna Trollope
Ben is, at last, leaving home. At twenty-two, he's the youngest of the family. His mother, Edie, an actress, is distraught. His father, Russell, a theatrical agent, is rather hoping to get his wife back. His brother, Matthew, is struggling in a relationship in which he achieves and earns less than his girlfriend. And his sister, Rosa, is wrestling with debt and the end of a turbulent love affair. Meet the Boyd family and the empty nest, twentieth-century style.
"Joanna Trollope has a genius for identifying the social dilemmas that most cruelly exercise the thoughtful, book-reading middle classes. In recent novels she has examined the topics of step-parenthood, marital breakdown, adoption and the work/life balance among twentysomethings. All of these problems she addressed with the distinctive, clear-sighted humanity that she now turns, in her latest book, Second Honeymoon, on the empty-nest generation." - Jane Shilling, Daily Telegraph

Wuthering Heights by Emily Brontë
Wuthering Heights, a National Curriculum set text, is the tale of two families both joined and riven by love and hate. Cathy is a beautiful and wilful young woman torn between her soft-hearted husband and Heathcliff, the passionate and resentful man who has loved her since childhood. The power of their bond creates a maelstrom of cruelty and violence which will leave one of them dead and cast a shadow over the lives of their children. Emily Brontë's novel is a stunningly original and shocking exploration of obsessive passion
'This brilliantly atmospheric Yorkshire saga has only one drawback - Emily never wrote another novel. For me, it is both fantastic but also true to life because the protagonists have such believably fierce emotions' - Kate Mosse

The Wind in the Willows by Kenneth Grahame
The day that Mole abandons his spring-cleaning and sets out to enjoy the sunshine is the start of many adventures. Not only does he discover the river and the joys of messing around in boats, but he also makes lifelong friends with Rat, Badger and the eccentric and incorrigible Toad.
'It is in the same category as Great Expectations or Tom Jones, because despite its brevity and its simplicity it has a deep strangeness which is never dulled by successive readings' - Mark Haddon
