Jess Kidd recommends
Palm Meridian (2025)
Grace Flahive
"This book is an absolute hoot. It's also a poignant celebration of love, life and friendship in all its forms. Flahive's debut is wildly entertaining, lovingly written and beautifully anarchic - a visit to Palm Meridian Retirement Resort is a must."
Our Hideous Progeny (2023)
C E McGill
"Our Hideous Progeny takes inspiration from Mary Shelley's masterpiece along with the Victorian fascination with scientific innovation and the prehistoric world. This wonderful debut evolves into a gripping Gothic tale of grief and ambition, passion and intrigue."
The Secret Diaries of Charles Ignatius Sancho (2022)
Paterson Joseph
"Elegant, moving and vital. What Paterson Joseph does - what every writer of historical fiction yearns to do - is make history fall away so that in every moment we are immersed in a lived life. A stunning debut."
