I found this list of Books About Life In Contemporary London to be really interesting. I’m happy to say I’ve read half of them (the wonderful Mr Loverman being my favourite – you can read my review here) and have added the others to my wishlist.
I’ve read such a lot of books set in London, where I live and have done most of my life, that I could probably add a number of novels to this list. Brick Lane by Monica Ali is one I am surprised didn’t make the list, and I’d probably throw in a bit of Nick Hornby too – but then I am an Arsenal fan…

Never heard of Mr Loverman. What genre is it? 🙂

I guess you would describe it as literary fiction. It’s set in Hackney, East London, and is about an Antiguan man in his 60s who has lived a lie for his whole life. He’s such a fantastic character – I really recommend it!
