The Novel Cure

Brilliant . . . A perfect gift * * Vogue * *
Witty, engaging and informative, The Novel Cure is for anyone who loves reading. It's the sort of book you choose for a friend and end up wanting to keep. My advice would be to buy two -- RACHEL JOYCE * * author of The Unlikely Pilgrimage of Harold Fry * *
Witty, warm and wise, I loved this book within moments of dipping in and know I shall be returning to it for a long time to come. It's a wonderful reminder of the restorative power of fiction and ideal for anyone who has ever wondered what on earth to read next -- SJ WATSON * * author of Before I Go to Sleep * *
The Novel Cure is a tonic in itself. It's tempting to become a hypochondriac just to read more -- DAMIAN BARR * * author of Maggie & Me * *
An exuberant pageant of literary fiction and a celebration of the possibilities of the novel * * Guardian * *
Astute and often amusing . . . a charming addition to any library. Time spent leafing through its pages is inspiring - even therapeutic * * The Economist * *
Wonderful . . . A really great gift for anyone who needs a literary pick-me-up * * Mumsnet * *
We're hooked * * Psychologies * *
This book is a great way to broaden your literary horizons - and an entertaining read in its own right * * The Lady * *
[An] amazing book . . . I suspect it is one that many a reader will want to own and keep to hand for every eventuality. Books about books are always a treat, I have a shelf full of them, but The Novel Cure is different, much more than that and I can see how useful it will be * * dovegreyreader.com * *
