  • If You Love Irish Writers, Read These Books

    By Claire Handscombe| Substack@ Happy St Patrick’s Day to all who celebrate! This is my opportunity to recommend some great books by Irish authors. You know about Sally Rooney, of course, and perhaps Caroline O’Donoghue, whose The Rachel Incident was an acclaimed novel of 2023, or Naoise Dolan, whose Exciting TimesI very much enjoyed (and whom I interviewed on the Brit Lit Podcast). But I’ve managed to narrow down my post to four recommendations — although you can find more on this list (UK) and this one (US).

  • If You Love Celebrating Female Friendship, Read These Books

    By Claire Handscombe| Substack@ Hello, fellow readers! And a big welcome to my new followers. I hope you’ll enjoy my lists of themed book recommendations. Immortalised by Leslie Knope of Parks and Recreation, Galentine’s Day — 13th February — is a great opportunity to celebrate female friendship. Which, in turn, is a great opportunity to celebrate books about female friendship. It was tough to narrow down my picks for this one — there’s a lot of great novels, memoirs, and reported non-fiction out there that explore this theme.
