So Thrilled For You (2025)
Holly Bourne
"Holy HELL, this was incredible. Explosively entertaining and compulsively plotted but so sensitive, so nuanced and so, so needed. It does beautiful justice to life on all sides of the baby divide, and treats every character's perspective with such tenderness - but there's a blazing political fire at its heart. At times it felt like the postnatal therapy I can't afford . . ."

Pity Party (2024)
Daisy Buchanan
"Buchanan's best yet! Every page crackles with wit and every character deserves their own spin-off. As heartening as it is hilarious, Pity Party is a masterful portrait of grief, contemporary wellness culture and the ways we attempt to heal. It's the funniest book you'll read all year, and maybe the most beautiful too."

Beach Rivals (2023)
Georgie Tilney
"A delight. Ideally would have read it on a beach; still bloody good served on the sofa."
