SPOTLIGHT : Jenny Colgan

This week's spotlight is turned on Jenny Colgan. Originally from Prestwick in Scotland, jenny is now married and has a son. The family currently live in London. Jenny began her working life as an administrator in the NHS, before turning her hand to cartooning and stand up comedy, before attempting her first novel. This was of course 'Amandas Wedding' and as a novelist she has never turned back.

The beauty of many of Jenny Colgan's books is their sheer simplicity. Even when she attempts plot devices such as time travel she never pushes the boundaries too far, and the unbelievable begins to feel actually quite believebale.

Carry on across the cut to see the list of Jenny's novels.
