My list probably won’t help you much to find candidates for your summer TBR, but maybe that’s a good thing if you’re already swamped. The books I’ve loved most recently are: The Queen of the High Fields by Rhiannon Grist, which was fun and gripping; Yellowface by Rebecca Kuang, which I devoured (read this in italics); and The Last to Drown by you, which absolutely had me in its claws with its beautiful, beautiful writing, despite the plot being so sparse and slow, and I really don’t know how you did that!!
Oh you're so kind to say such lovely things, thank you! And yes, I adored Queen Of The High Fields too - so well deserving of its BFA win! I've not dared try Yellowface tbh - I'm not sure I'm ready for how much it'll trigger my publishing vexations 😂
I’m not being kind, I was really just so, so impressed, and I’m totally getting your new one as well! As for Yellowface, you might have a point there, it’s wild, though it’s also wonderfully clever.
