Make 2010 a Well Read Year with our 'Books You Must Read Before You Die!' Books You Must Read Before You Die
Our 10th title is - Tom Jones by Henry Fielding. Fielding's comic masterpiece. At the centre of one of the most ingenious plots in English fiction stands a hero whose actions were, in 1749, as shocking as they are funny today. Expelled from Mr Allworthy's country estate for his wild temper and sexual conquests, the good-hearted foundling Tom Jones loses his money, joins the army, and pursues his beloved across Britain to London, where he becomes a kept lover and confronts the possibility of incest. Tom Jones is rightly regarded as Fielding's greatest work, and one of the first and most influential of English novels.

It has been two years since her husband's death, and now Lisey has finally summoned the strength to begin clearing out her dead husband's writing area. What begins as a simple task soon causes Lisey to begin facing certain dark realities about her husband that she had repressed and forgotten. Perhaps King's most personal and powerful novel, Lisey's Story is about the wellsprings of creativity, the temptations of madness, and the secret language of love.

Our books of the day

Raven by Giles Kristian
A gripping tale of action and treachery which splendidly conjures up the sounds, sights and smells of Dark Age Britain. It creates a believable world of men fighting, feasting and braving the sea, a time when the Christian and Norse gods were very real and very close in the thoughts of mankind. a rip-roaring viking saga in the glorious, blood-soaked tradition of Low's 'The Whale Road' and the Severin 'Viking' trilogy.

This is a high-end chick lit at its best! Well-written, with such believable and engaging characters, it was an absolute joy to read. From the award winning author of The Secret Life of a Slummy Mummy, comes another instalment of her hilarious take on modern parenting. This is every bit as funny, and packed with observations of wince-making accuracy... Superb entertainment!
