Fans of Veronica Roth’s 'Divergent', Marie Lu’s 'Legend', and Suzanne Collins’s 'The Hunger Games' series: your next obsession has arrived

A work of artistry... Inventive, shocking, authentic, frenetic, fresh. I held my breath the whole way.

A love letter to a vanished New York

Vivid and sensitive, [with] exuberance and heart

Intoxicating and raw... [it] pulses with creative energy

Tuesday Nights In 1980 shakes with life and colour... Original and full of life.

A beautifully written story of creation and transformation, set against a backdrop of urban decay and political violence. I loved this book

Prentiss has imagination and humour... Spirited and delightful

Soulful, ambitious and deeply felt.. A first work of fiction to marvel at and then savor. This is a serious young writer in full command of her craft

This fun, super-readable breath of fresh air had us completely hooked

Kinsella at her put-a-smile-on-your-face best

A warm-hearted comedy about appreciating what really matters in life

I'm a huge fan of Kinsella . . . This is a highly enjoyable romp

A captivating story, full of heart.

a powerful book and a cautionary tale... it's also a touching celebration of human determination in the overcoming of adversity.

Darkly funny debut

Funny and warm, heartbreaking too. Impressive debut!

emotional, raw, deeply moving and…funny too

...a really rather good YA crossover ... while Khorsandi's novel tackles some pretty big subjects, it does so while making you laugh out loud

I really couldn’t put this book down. It’s not just for young people but if you have a teenage daughter, please make her read it.

I am loving Shappi Khorsandi's Nina is Not OK, she is making me care about 'Nina' so much that I get anxious on her behalf

Thematically taut and compulsively paced.

A very good novel of anxiety, embarrassment and also, somehow, the depths of Englishness.

Marvellous, original and intelligent. Kunzru writes like a master storyteller... There's simply nothing [he] couldn't manage in prose

Publisher's description. Electrifying, subversive and wildly original, White Tears is a ghost story and a love story, a story about lost innocence and historical guilt. This unmissable novel penetrates the heart of a nation's darkness, encountering a suppressed history of greed, envy, revenge and exploitation, and holding a mirror up to the true nature of America today.

Compulsively readable, masterly - a tour de force

Riveting from the very first page, I was completely addicted... A literary thriller and a timely, unsparing excavation of the very real spectre of race in America's past and present. White Tears is proof that Kunzru is one of the finest novelists of his generation...

Hari Kunzru is an incredibly versatile writer who is alert to the inequalities in the world... Powerful and complex, White Tears is a novel about abuses of wealth and power. Brilliantly orchestrated, unforgettable and devastating

Hari Kunzru is one of our most important novelists

Kunzru's engagingly wired prose and agile plotting sweep all before them

Elizabeth Strout's My Name is Lucy Barton shouldn't work, but its frail texture was a triumph of tenderness, and sent me back to her excellent Olive Kitteridge

A rich account of a relationship between mother and daughter, the frailty of memory and the power of healing

This physically slight book packs an unexpected emotional punch

A novel offering more hope

My Name Is Lucy Barton intrigues and pierces with its evocative, skin-peeling back remembrances of growing up dirt-poor.

Masterly
