Book suggestions please!
      #280172 - 15/12/2008 12:03

Hi. Just wondering if anyone can help. I have a 21 year old daughter who has never liked reading (apart from OK and Heat!). Have been trying for years to find some books she might enjoy. The only ones she has ever really taken an interest in are the Jilly Cooper books...... Want to give her a couple for Christmas and just wondering if anyone can suggest something - apart from a year's subscription to OK!

Thanks so much for the help.

Anything by Sophie Kinsella, Cathy Kelly, Freya North, or awful to me, but Katie Price (Jordan)is the one thing my non reading reader will actually go and buy herself. Its just like OK I suppose. I keep hoping if she gets in the habit she'll progress!

My 19 year old daughter, who doesn't read very much either, has also enjoyed books by Katie Price.

How about crime novels or if she likes children, try books by Torey Hayden. They are true stories and addictive.
