HABITS OF THE HOUSE BY FAY WELDON (£14.99, HEAD OF ZEUS)

Follow the lives of an aristocratic household in the last three months of the 19th century. They still live an indulgent life, but like everyone else living in a time of turmoil, the Dilbernes family are facing bankruptcy and their only option is to marry off their son and fast. But who will they choose? An intelligent and refreshing look at a time period we all love so much.

THE DARK KNIGHT RISES (15)
OK, so it’s not exactly ‘girly’, but with Christian Bale and Tom Hardy (Lawless, Inception) hunking it up in the third instalment of the Batman film franchise, what more could a girl need? Terrorist Bane (Hardy) returns to Gotham and it’s up to the Dark Knight to combat him. Check out Anne Hathaway’s killer outfits, too, as she plays Catwoman.
