Anyone else like this where because they read one book by an author and they’re not keen on it avoid the author?

I remember reading his Turning Thirty novel many moons ago. I recall being pleased because the main character in the book turned 30 on the exact same day that I did!I've recently discovered Mike Gayle and loving his books - I read The Man I think I know in less than a day and All the lonely people the other month.
I read all of the YA The Spinster Club Series by Holly Bourne over the weekend too.
I've started on The Frequency of Us - Keith Stuart.
And just got Verity for 99p thanks to here
If you enjoyed the BBC series and want more in a similar vein I would recommend the 2001 movie Promising Young Things. It's a fun romp. Directed by Stephen Fry, based on Vile Bodies by Evelyn Waugh, and an excellent cast including Emily Mortimer who directed the Pursuit of Love BBC series. Definitely read the book too, It's a nice contract with Mitford's work given they were contemporaries.A slice of indulgent escapism is what I'm really craving right now, so that's great to hear!
And that's fair enough, I think, from what I've read, that fans of novels didn't love it. It just scratched a particular itch I had, in my case.
Ooh, thanks so much for the recommendations! I'll definitely be checking them out!If you enjoyed the BBC series and want more in a similar vein I would recommend the 2001 movie Promising Young Things. It's a fun romp.

Also, Life in a Cold Climate by Laura Thompson is an excellent Nancy Mitford biography.
This thread is doing bad things to my TBR!
Three Hours is in my top 3 books of this year. It was the first book I read in 2021, I’m now on my 31st but yet the storyline and events of Three Hours are still as clear in my head as if I’d read it last week. Cannot say the same for others I’ve read this year.I finished Three Hours by Rosamund Lupton so quickly the other day, absolutely loved it. I thought it was really well done and wasn’t too overly political.
Same here. Its a really good book.Three Hours is in my top 3 books of this year. It was the first book I read in 2021, I’m now on my 31st but yet the storyline and events of Three Hours are still as clear in my head as if I’d read it last week. Cannot say the same for others I’ve read this year.

This is exactly how I feel about it! I’ve been thinking about it since I finished it and I’m sure it’ll stay with me for a while. That doesn’t happen too often!Same here. Its a really good book.
