Amanda Geard recommends
The Midnight Carousel (2025)
Fiza Saeed McLynn
"I LOVED The Midnight Carouseland devoured the entire book in a few days. What a special story this is, full of atmosphere and intrigue, lifted to dizzying heights by Fiza's lyrical writing. Carousels might well spin, but this one wove its way through time and space, plaiting the tale together. A brilliant, absorbing ride, one of the most atmospheric novels I've read in a long time."
The Day I Left You (2025)
Caroline Bishop
"Affecting, assured, and moving. I can't remember the last time I read a novel with such historical authenticity. An unflinching view of love, in its many forms. It made me ask myself what it takes to be courageous."
The Lotus Shoes (2025)
Jane Yang
"Stunning, transporting, unforgettable. The Lotus Shoes caught me hook, line and sinker from the first pages and Little Flower is the bravest character I've ever read. Jane Yang is going to be a star."
