It is absolute fluff, so don't expect anything more than that! But it's also lovely escapism!

Fluff is about all I can handle at this point!!

I like Alexander Mcall Smith. His #1 Ladies Detective Agency series is wonderful!  :)

Land Girls by Angela Huth is a good read.

I'm about halfway through it now. It's great!! Thanks for the recommendation, Liz! :)

The film is great. One of the few I own. I love Stephen Mackintosh in it. I think I preferred the film's ending to the book's.

I think so.

I was pregnant at the time and not of this world when I read it but i'm pretty sure they did... Don't want to spoil anything for people ploughing through it!

They did change the ending a bit in the film, but I don't remember what it was.  It was an excellent movie though!

The Big Over Easy by Jasper Fforde.  It is hillarious, a 'little' bit intelligent, but mainly just makes you laugh.

Try "84 Charringcross road" it's a book I stumbled across when I was 14 or so in a second hand bookstore enjoyed it so much the title stayed with me for many years as did the story and it is about a friendship from england to usa in the good old days.  You will shed a tear in places but will come off on the whole feeling a better person.  It is what is great about people in book form.
