Books containing stories by S J Bennett
S J Bennett recommends

The Gatsby Gambit (2025)
Claire Anderson Wheeler
"Like so many, I'm familiar with the dazzling, tragic characters of The Great Gatsby. But in this reimagining of their world, Claire sheds new light on who suffers, and who succeeds. As well as a mystery, it's a coming of age story for Jay's younger sister, Gigi, and I loved her growing insights into her privileged life, and what it costs. It's an accomplished and satisfying read imbued with the luxury and lurking danger in the jewel of West Egg."

A Brush with Death (2025)
J M Hall
"Warm characters and wonderful writing... It's steeped in Yorkshire like a mug of hot, strong tea... I loved it."
