A Fine Balance by Rohinton Minstry - one of my favourite books but also a bit of a tear jerker!!

'Perfume' by Patrick Süskind

One of my favourites and it will REALLY cause some fur to fly in the group when you are discussing it!

The Light Between Oceans by M.L Stedman I just read this after hearing about it on the "what are you reading" thread here. Set in WA mostly during the 1920s. Good, thought provoking, interesting.

I have read this and that would be a good book group read.

Ugh I loathed 'Perfume' but it was a good discussion!

I suggest:

Gone Girl - Gillian Flynn
All That I Am - Anna Funder
Good to a Fault - Marina Endicott
The Marriage Plot - Jeffrey Eugenides

I loved Perfume. Gone Girl has lot of talking points and is more recent.
