Meadowlark (2020)
Melanie Abrams
"Melanie Abrams’s Meadowlark seduces you into the dark, secretive world of cults and how those who have been touched by them are never truly free. Her textured prose and detailed descriptions of the rituals and rivalries behind the compound gates are not only vividly imagined but also completely transporting. Simrin and Arjun, with their complexities and weaknesses, are frighteningly believable and reeled me in from the moment they appeared on the page. A gorgeous and gripping read."
