Jacqueline Bublitz recommends

Stillwater (2025)
(Luke Harris, book 1)
Tanya Scott
"Packed with tension, twists, and heart, Stillwater is a thrilling read in every sense of the word. Tanya Scott expertly balances a page-turning, explosive plot with an intimate exploration of trauma and healing, while showing us just how fine the line between saint and sinner can be. What a remarkable debut!"

A Beautiful Family (2025)
Jennifer Trevelyan
"Taut yet tender, A Beautiful Family examines the precariousness of childhood through the lens of a long, hazy summer of secrets. Proving the maxim that all unhappy families are unhappy in their own way, Trevelyan has crafted a coming of age story that perfectly balances the nostalgia of summer holidays with a looming sense of danger. Find a sun-lit corner and devour this sensational debut in one session (like I did)."

The Last Days of Joy (2023)
Anne Tiernan
"Authentic, deeply moving and full of hope, this book broke my heart a little."
