Our brilliant authors have received lots of great press recently!

• Sally Abé contributed to The Observer with a Christmas dinner disaster story along with some other very iconic foodies!

• We were thrilled to see that The Times has named THE TEMPLE OF FORTUNA by Elodie Harper as a Times Paperback Novel of the Year.

• Katy Hessel has featured HIDDEN TREASURE by Jessie Burton and MADAME MATISSE by Sophie Haydock in her list of books and exhibitions she’s most looking forward to in 2025.

• HIDDEN TREASURE by Jessie Burton received a fantastic feature in The Bookseller for their Children’s Previews: “In the new children’s novel from Burton, two children, both of whom have experienced loss, find halves of a treasure given up by the river. When the pieces are reunited it holds the power to give back to them one of the most precious things they have ever lost. But should that power be used? Hidden Treasure is a poignant, page-turning adventure story that is wise about family, friendship and love, and is the kind of literary middle-grade that appeals to readers of Katherine Rundell and Anna James.”

• MADAME MATISSE by Sophie Haydock has been included in Cosmopolitan’s list of ‘The 25 books we can't wait to read in 2025’!

• Forbes has included Richard Osman’s THE THURSDAY MURDER CLUB in their ‘30 Cozy Winter Books To Read This Season’ roundup. They write: “The colorful, delightful seniors who form the Thursday Murder Club enjoy solving mysteries while also busting stereotypes about older people. Richard Osman’s laugh-out-loud prose propelled this book to the top of the bestseller list, and a Netflix adaptation will appear in 2025. This book is best for anyone who needs a laugh or a biscuit.”

• Mick Herron has picked DAY ONE by Abigail Dean as one of his favourite books of the year in the Express. He calls it “Absorbing, moving and highly recommended.”
