Books in the Media
The past week saw lots of our fabulous authors in the media...
Krystle Zara Appiah’s ROOTLESS has been reviewed by Publishers Weekly, who describe Krystle’s debut as “an expansive and rich saga of a British Ghanaian woman balancing familial expectations with her own desires.”
ROOTLESS has also been featured in Brittle Paper’s ‘61 Anticipated African Books of 2023’. They write: ‘Rootless is a heartrending love story about motherhood and sacrifice, providing an intimate look at what happens after a marriage collapses, leading two people to rediscover what they ultimately want—and if it’s still each other. As Efe says, “Love and regret aren’t mutually exclusive.”’
The Women’s Prize has named Sophie Haydock’s THE FLAMES as one of their best books of 2022, as voted by their readers via social media. One reader described it as “An electrifying blend of fact and fiction”.
THE DROWNING EMPIRE by Andrea Stewart is one of ‘The 25 Best Fantasy Book Series Ever Written’, according to Reader’s Digest, with its “deeply developed characters and an intriguing magic system”. THE BONE SHARD WAR is the final book in the trilogy and will be published in April 2023.
