Lawson's latest book is the one I've been waiting for her to write...Her aim is to empower and demystify and to encourage everyone to get as much pleasure from cooking as she does

Interweaves domestic goddess-style recipes with personal musings and guides

Twenty-two years after her first book, How To Eat, Nigella Lawson has produced what feels like its answer: Cook, Eat, Repeat.

Nigella's writing is a culinary stream of consciousness that piques the senses and you hear her reassuring voice through her writing... Cook, Eat, Repeat is expansive, practical and enjoyable

Cook, Eat, Repeat is a wonderful combination of gastronomical essays, stylish up-to-date imagery and - most importantly - recipes with far-reaching appeal, ticking boxes as both an entertaining read and a practical guide

A voyage of discover at @3 mph

A tender story of female friendship

Anne Youngson's witty and elegant novel is a celebration of friendship and a timely reminder that it is never too late to take on a daunting (but life-changing) new challenge

Expansive, beguiling . . . A thrilling yarn that simultaneously underscores the cost of progress and celebrates the American spirit

It's a tremendous work, a vivid, propulsive, historical novel with a politically explosive backdrop that reverberates through our own

Jess Walter is a superb storyteller. As polished and hard as a diamond, The Cold Millions reminds us of America's tempestuous past and suggests that all this is anything but past

Walter marshals a motley, fascinating cast of characters so finely drawn that they lift from the page. I haven't encountered a more satisfying and moving novel about the struggle for workers' rights in America

A layered, multi-character panorama

It's often said that a novel contains the world; Walter brings new meaning to this phrase, peopling The Cold Millions with vaudeville stars, hobos, suffragists, tycoons, union agitators, policemen, and dozens of other vibrant characters. Warm and deeply humane, this transporting novel is a staggering achievement from a landmark writer

The fact that the same author has written books as wildly different and all as transporting as The Zero, The Financial Lives of the Poets, Beautiful Ruins, and now this latest tour de force is testimony to Walter's protean storytelling power and astounding ability to set a scene, any scene . . . We have heard that Jess Walter writes nonstop: Seven days a week, 365 days a year. Please, never stop.

Superb.... a splendid postmodern rendition of the social realist novels of the 1930s by Henry Roth, John Steinbeck, and John Dos Passos, updated with strong female characters and executed with pristine prose. This could well be Walter's best work yet.

A great tapestry of busy-ness . . . Walter's descriptive passage are marvellous

Written in her [Lawson's] inimitable warm and conversational style, it's [Cook, Eat, Repeat] an electric mix

A stunning variety of recipes in this year's cookbook collection', mention: 'A delicious and delightful combination of recipes intertwined with narrative essays about food, all written in Nigella's engaging and insightful prose

Thrilling... A wise, digressive celebration of the life-affirming pleasures of eating that sparkles with descriptive sentences that are just as delectable as dishes that cover everything from crab mac'n'cheese to sweet and salty chocolate cookies specifically designed not to be shared... Nigella's latest book -- through its wisdom, wit and urge to bring joy -- has the knack of making an uncertain future feel that little bit more bearable

Cook, Eat, Repeat is an informative, intelligent, thought-provoking and amusing book. Surely the combination of her delicious recipes and delicious words is a dream come true

There's not a cook in the country who won't be licking their lips in anticipation

Wonderful... Its real strength is that Nigella is such a pleasure to read

A delicious and delightful combination of recipes intertwined with narrative essays about food, all written in the cook's engaging and insightful prose

There is everything you want from a cookbook - brilliant recipes, a little bit of humour and, most importantly, a lot of comfort

Beautifully written... A must for domestic goddesses

Heartbreaking and humorous in equal measures

A bouncy, comedy drama. Funny, poignant and bursting with joie de vivre

A thought-provoking read . . . shows the true extent of motherly love

Dawn French moves between the aftermath of that fateful night and 18 years later, when the explosive impact of Hope's actions is finally felt

A heartfelt story, handled so carefully and empathetically

Because Of You is a tale told with warmth by a storyteller who never takes herself too seriously

Heartbreaking but redemptive, and lightened by French's trademark humour, this is a compelling read that will keep you poised between laughter and tears

A tantalising story of motherhood told with Dawn French's signature warmth

As ever, even in the darkest of times, Dawn has found humour to inject into her novel

A brilliant book

The life-affirming and unmissable new novel

A tale told with warmth

While Dawn French's latest novel contains a dash of humour, it's also heart-wrenching

A fabulous emotional tearjerker of a novel

Praise for Dawn French

Hilarious and brilliant

I adored According to YES. It's so different to anything I've read in forever, so charming, wise, brilliantly written. I loved it all

Witty and wise, it'll have you burning the midnight oil. A cracker

Very funny and packs an emotional clout. Brilliant!

An enlightening and feel-good read offering a fresh look at life and how to embrace it. Funny and enjoyable to the end

There is lots of fun to be had reading this book. It's impossible not to warm to Rosie, a funny and open-hearted woman who acts as a salve and comfort blanket for this unhappy, inhibited family. There's something quite joyous about the way she unashamedly romps her way through the novel, changing the lives of those around her for the better

Another hilarious novel!

French can spin a yarn . . . which sets According to YES apart. Think the vicar of Dibley, without the dog collar. YES YES YES indeed

Wise and poignant

Heart-warming
