Our companion resource to Who Next…? is called Who else writes like? and it’s aimed at teenagers and older readers. It does exactly what it says – find out who writes like your current favourite authors and be inspired to try new authors.

It can also help with a bit of armchair travel. Who else writes like? allows you to search by country which means you can explore the world without leaving the comfort of your own home. Travel across America with Jack Kerouac, experience France with Muriel Barbery or marvel at the high Swedish crime rate for yourself with a large number of excellent Swedish authors. When you find an author you like then visit the site to find someone who writes in a similar style to your old favourites, to find someone who writes those soppy holiday romance books that you know you love, or just to get ideas for something new.

It’s not three weeks in Barbados, but Who else writes like….? can help you discover new places, cultures and authors to keep you informed and entertained whilst waiting for the Scottish summer to actually start.
