Letters to My Younger Self: Inspirational Women
Edited by Jane Graham (£10.99, PB, Bonnier)

The perfect treat to dip into between busy moments, this inspiring collection features 70 women writing letters to their younger selves with the wisdom that only age can bring. From Billie Piper on burnout to Ruth Jones on wishing she'd spent more time with her grandmothers, Nancy Sinatra on marrying young and Alesha Dixon on wishing she'd had more faith that things would work out, each letter is heartfelt. Delightful, inspiring and deeply personal, it encourages reflection and celebrates women's experiences.
