Harriet Constable recommends
Everything to the Sea (2026)
Alicia Upano
"The type of story that is so necessary for humanity at this moment, brimming full of compassion, which teaches us to be gentle with ourselves in the aftermath of spectacular tragedy. I couldn't stop reading and found myself thinking about Kenji and Jane in the moments I was away from the book. Tender, gut wrenching and propulsive, Everything to the Sea is balm for the soul. It's a powerful love story and ultimately a life affirming tale of what can grow out tremendous loss - but only if we can learn to forgive ourselves."
Madame Matisse (2025)
Sophie Haydock
"Madame Matisse is everything I want in a book: an evocative and thoughtful work, packed full of insights into the tumultuous world of the 1930s French art movement. Most crucially of all, it places the fascinating women who helped shape one of history's most loved artists front and centre."
The Woman in the Wallpaper (2025)
Lora Jones
"A brilliant debut: vivid, passionate and beautifully woven, which completely transports us back to 18th century France."
