Tahmima Anam recommends

The Museum Detective (2025)
Maha Khan Phillips
"The Museum Detective is everything you want in a crime novel: twisty, unputdownable, and with a brilliant, lovable heroine who will take up permanent residence in your head."

Tell Me an Ending (2022)
Jo Harkin
"A cautionary tale about technology making its way into the very depths of our personal lives, Tell Me an Ending is thought-provoking and utterly compulsive."

Love Marriage (2022)
Monica Ali
"No one captures the modern family like Monica Ali - Love Marriage is a masterful cacophony of characters, all drawn with deep empathy and sharp insight. The novel is full of surprises and unexpected twists, with an ending that will take your breath away."
