If you're after ideas for what to read this summer, look no further than our round-up of the best summer reads for 2019.

One very lucky person can win all the books featured on the page - worth over £600.

To enter, simply tell us your favourite female character from a book (old or new and from any genre).

A winner will be drawn at random at midday on Monday 15 July. Usual terms and conditions apply. Note that because of the size and weight of the prize box, we are only able to deliver to mainland UK addresses.

'Elizabeth Bennet' is my favourite female character of all time from the romantic novel Pride and Prejudice by the famous Jane Austen.

Jane Eyre is my favourite female character because I first read this book as a teenager and have returned to it many times because it engaged me so much and it will always be special to me!
