Victoria Hislop is a good writer, particularly those stories set in the Mediterranean. She has a few books of short stories and I enjoyed One Cretan Evening. Not too taxing.

I couldn’t read during lockdown, my solution was to go back to re-reading some of my all time favourites.

It worked as they were literary comfort blankets and after 3 or 4 books my reading mojo was back 📚📚📚

Maeve Binchy books are easy reading, I always find.

Ever since a breakdown some years ago, my concentration seems to have gone. I can't cope with anything too fluffy but can't concentrate on anything too complicated.
Even had to give up on a Fern Britton the other day!

Can anybody suggest a middle ground at all please? Sad to say shortish chapters, character driven and dialogue are necessary.
