Joanna Nadin recommends
thumb
The Square of Sevens (2023)
Laura Shepherd-Robinson
"My favourite Laura Shepherd-Robinson novel yet. Fortune telling, Cornwall and Bath. What's not to love? Completely compelling and clever, of course. And in Red, a heroine I wanted to spend days with."
thumb
Cuckoo in the Nest (2023)
Fran Hill
"Totally evokes a seventies childhood."
thumb
The Rescue of Ravenwood (2023)
Natasha Farrant
"Gripping, and important - so lightly and deftly done. I found myself waking up and wanting desperately to go and live in Ravenwood - I think all readers will."
