Published in 1985, Jilly Cooper's Riders is the first I read by this author and remains my favourite. I found Riders one summer in a charity shop and read it non stop until I had finished, I was hooked! Jilly Cooper's Riders is a fantastic read, with plenty of drama, romance and sheer frivolous froth. Jilly Cooper preceded chick lit fiction, and probably invented it! Read on for my review of this classic 80's bonkbusting blockbuster novel!
