So Thrilled For You (2025)
Holly Bourne
"What a blistering read. Searingly honest, funny and awful and desperately sad - this book absolutely put me through the wringer. Complicated friendships, brilliantly relatable characters - Holly Bourne continues to hold up a mirror to society and women's place in it. I loved it. It will give book clubs endless opportunities for great discussion. What a writer. So very good and so so so very true - to the point I wanted to cry at many points."
Is She Really Going Out with Him? (2024)
Sophie Cousens
"Zippy dialogue, a great cast, and a delicious enemies to lovers plot made me want to turn my phone off and read in one sitting. . . . Charming, with so much heart and Cousens' trademark wit - a fab read."
The Book Swap (2024)
Tessa Bickers
"Both a gorgeous romance between two broken people, and a love letter to books and reading. If you loved The Flatshare you will love this heartfelt debut from Tessa Bickers about two people with tragic pasts, brought together through notes scribbled in the margins of their favourite reads. This debut is catnip for any book geek. I just loved it."
