Nussaibah Younis recommends
Don't Make Me Laugh (2025)
Julia Raeside
"Priviledged to read an advance copy of Don't make Me Laugh by @juliaraesidewriter. It's a timely, shocking, and important exploration of abuse in the stand-up comedy world. A very absorbing and propulsive read, I steamed through it."
The Lamb (2025)
Lucy Rose
"The Lamb is a gorgeous, lyrical, evocative, hunger-inducing, and deeply moving novel that I just gobbled up, reading it totally compulsively right to the end."
