Summer 2021 Must Reads
By Tilly Delane
People often assume that because I am a romance-thriller writer this also reflects me as a reader, but they couldn’t be more wrong.
My bookshelves house mostly modern classics, sci-fi, and children’s books.
Yet this summer my reading list will be surprisingly heavy on the ‘love stuff’. This is mostly due to a young lady called KG Smith. She has been bamboozling the romance scene with being one of the nicest, most professional FB group hosts around and is about to release her first romance novel – at the tender age of fourteen! I genuinely cannot wait to see what this ingénue has cooked up in “Heaven in Hiding”.
Another must-read also came from FB where I discovered Sally Dawes, a Brit like me who, like me, mixes romance with Brit-grit. I’ve already sampled some of her work, but have saved, The Vine Trilogy, for my summer holiday treat. I have a feeling it’s dark, sexy and profound – a combination I cannot resist.
My final must-read this summer? Back to my origins in 1984, I have biennial dates, and it’s time once more.
If you haven’t read it, you really should. It’s one of those books that gets more current every time.
I do love 1984! <3
