In the midst of today’s busy world, it’s always nice to take some time out and kick-back with an old favourite book or delve into the world of a new author’s imagination.

So, in honour of this year’s #BookLoversDay we asked our employees for their favourite book or author recommendations! Check out below to see what they had to say:

I discovered the Harry Bosch series by Michael Connelly when I was travelling and have loved Michaels work ever since! – Candice, Marketing Manager

I would recommend the author Kazuo Ishiguro. His books encompass different genres and his work always stays with you long after you’ve finished. – Geri, Resource & Development Leader

Jenifer Niven’s All the Bright Places is one of my favourite books of all time, a truly amazing author. – Crystal, Marketing Apprentice

I love The Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy series of books – they are hilarious and one of my favourite lines is: “It is a mistake to think you can solve any major problems just with potatoes.” – Michelle, Compliance Manager

Birdsong by Sebastian Faulks. An emotional, often gruesome and heart-breaking journey. One to fall in love with again and again. – Jemma, Resource & Development Leader

Biff, Chip and Kipper were firm favourites when I was a kid! – Charlie, Account Manager

Share your favourite book or author with us today – we’d love to hear your recommendations!
