Lori Inglis Hall recommends

Mistress of the Persian Boarding House (2026)
Marina Nemat
"'A sweeping yet intimate story about the human cost at the heart of some of recent history's most violent and devastating events. Written in . . . beautiful and tender prose, I could not put this down. It is an extraordinary novel, one of strength, resilience, and the most incredible spirit. Historical, and yet extremely relevant to modern times."

The First Act of Summer (2026)
Joanna Glen
"One of those books you plan to dip into, and before you know it hours have passed. Glen has such a gift for characters who feel real and leap off the page and into your imagination fully formed. I adored it."
