My best friend's girl and Marshmallows for breakfast by Dorothy Koomson are both good reads.
The undomestic goddess by Sophie Kinsella is also good.
I tend to go for chick lit quite a bit so if you like those I can recommend a few.

Helen I don't mind a bit of chick lit.......if I've just read a heavy book, I find it's good to have something easy and funny to read after.xx

I'm going to hunt her books out this week Muffy, though I'll probably end up getting them from Amazon.

Have you found any of AMANDA Scotts books yet, they looked quite good, similar themes...

Stray, apparently, after she died her sons found piles of manuscripts she had never sent for publication, I think they are the ones now seen as written by a ghost writer.

Manda Scott wrote a stand alone book which my dad enjoyed. It was to do with averting the end of the world, Mayan prophesy etc. i'll see if I can find the title.
