The Ladies Hall (2026)
Vanessa Miller
"THE LADIES HALL is a beautifully envisioned novel that invites readers into a richly drawn world that's too rarely seen in fiction. Through the stories of Mary Church Terrell, Anna Julia Cooper, and Ida Gibbs, author Vanessa Miller deftly captures the triumphs, defeats, compromises, and breakthroughs that marked Black women's experiences at integrated Oberlin College during a period of profound social change. Miller's words convey her heroines' courage and grit alongside their deeply human desires--for friendship, for love, for belonging, for purpose. THE LADIES HALL gifts us a layered, unflinching portrait of three American heroines and their determination to reshape the world for the better."

"I devoured Emma Pei Yin's heart-rending, transportive, and action-packed When Sleeping Women Wake in a single day. Brimming with intrigue and fascinating history, this sweeping story brings to life beautifully drawn characters and paints a gripping portrait of the strength of women's bonds."
