Look What You Made Me Do by John Lanchester. This book is marvellous - the premise being that every marriage has its own language which is meaningless to anyone listening in. A new Netflix show called Cheating becomes the talk of the town and appears to contain verbatim words and phrases which were unique to Kate and Jack - but Jack has died and Kate’s left wondering whether their long and faithful marriage was actually something else entirely. How else could the scriptwriter have possibly known?

It’s full of famous names. She’s had an extraordinary life, and this is it in her own words.
