The Book Swap (2024)
Tessa Bickers
"Poignant . . . simply a beautiful story about love, friendship and the restorative power of forgiveness."
thumb
Grown Women (2024)
Sarai Johnson
"Grown Women took my breath away. A skillfully written story about the complexities of love, control, motherhood, and trying your best even when you think your best isn't good enough, it's heartbreakingly honest, emotionally immersive, and painfully poignant. A master class in depicting the overt and the subtle effects of generational trauma and the self-strengthening power of forgiveness."

Jaded (2024)
Ela Lee
"Wonderfully multi-faceted and emotionally compelling."
