‘Cleopatra and Frankenstein’ by Coco Mellors
Mellors gives us a novel engaging enough to follow but often feels like it favours style instead of profundity.
‘Hamnet’ by Maggie O’Farrell
Behind one of literature’s most famous names is a story of devastating loss. O’Farrell places Agnes rightfully at its centre, capturing the labour of a mother left to carry on.
‘Wild Dark Shore’ by Charlotte McConaghy
A remote island, a woman washed ashore, and a mystery rooted in grief and survival. ‘Wild Dark Shore’ pulls you into a world where nature, love and loss are dangerously entwined.
‘The Correspondent’ by Virginia Evans
A sharp, funny and deeply human portrait, told through letters that carry more weight than any modern message ever could.

A novel with potential that ultimately falls short – hints at big ideas about power and criticism struggle to turn into something cohesive.
‘Heart the Lover’ by Lily King
An immersive reflection on love and memory, Heart The Lover traces how early choices and missed opportunities continue to shape a life long after they are made.
