Nicola Dinan recommends

Palm Meridian (2025)
Grace Flahive
"Palm Meridian is a masterful love story set in a time of crisis. . . Flahive deftly weaves between the past, present and future. It is heartful and hopeful in equal measure."

Stag Dance (2025)
Torrey Peters
"A brilliant literary kaleidoscope. Peters shatters the familiar in four bold and imaginative tales, each powerful enough to reshape our understanding of transness and where we find it."
