    Hands up if you're a fan of The Murderer's Ape by Jakob Wegelius and you'd like to be first in the know to hear about The False Rose, which publishes this Autumn and takes Sally Jones on a brand new adventure. . . Personally, I can hardly wait!

    ‘To read Carver is to face down that most worrisome of quandaries: what are we to do with the lives that are not remarkable, those lives that everyone else ends up living?’ This essay has made me fall in love with Carver all over again.

    I was utterly captivated by Detransition Baby by Torrey Peters. It’s as irresistible and brilliant as you’ve heard it is. I can’t recommend it enough. The work is the thing, not the noise. Fuck the noise.

    Storming through my April reads. Next up, A Man Named Doll by Jonathan Ames 4 chapters in and I'm loving the sort of sarcastic, somewhat dark humour. Quirky and entertaining.
