Anna North recommends
Pelican Girls (2024)
Julia Malye
"This richly imagined historical saga tells the story of three women, discarded by French society, who have little choice but to make new lives in a country thousands of miles away, married to men they barely know. As their lives intertwine again and again, Malye paints a vivid portrait of displacement and resilience, even as she lays bare the compromises her heroines must make and the ways they become complicit in the inequities of empire."
Sleeping with Friends (2024)
(Friends and Enemies, book 1)
Emily Schultz
"This propulsive thriller will have you on the edge of your seat as old friends reunite to solve a mystery that implicates them all. Schultz raises questions of art and artifice, memory and trust, all while telling a page-turning, unputdownable story."
The Last Language (2023)
Jennifer duBois
"A novel of razor-sharp intelligence and devastating emotional power, The Last Language asks how and whether we can ever truly understand each other. DuBois's fierce and witty writing illuminates every page as her characters explore the possibilities and limits of human communication, empathy, and love."
