Dele Weds Destiny
Tomi Obaro
Premium Fiction
Fiction
Hardback
Three women. Three decades. The friendship of a lifetime. Zainab, Funmi and Enitan first meet at University in northern Nigeria, all learning how to become themselves. It's an experience that binds the three very different women together. When Enitan moves to New York to elope with a white man, Zainab and Funmi are left behind, with drastically different fortunes.
Taylor Jenkins Reid Review
I'm a sucker for books about female friendships and mother-daughter relationships. This one, featuring the stories of Funmi, Zainab, and Enitan — three friends reuniting in Lagos when one of their daughter's is to be married — is meaningful, complicated, and rendered with such heart.

Skye Falling
Mia McKenzie
Fiction
Paperback
A woman who's used to going solo discovers that there's one relationship she can't run away from. Twenty-six and broke, Skye didn't think twice before selling her eggs and happily pocketing the cash. Now approaching forty, Skye moves through life entirely--and unrepentantly--on her own terms. But then a twelve-year-old girl shows up during one of Skye's brief visits to her hometown of Philadelphia, and tells Skye that she's "her egg."
Taylor Jenkins Reid Review
Skye Falling is one of those books where I fell hard for this mess of a protagonist and I was deeply invested in seeing her find her way through the world. It's what great fiction should be: a chance to meet a character who drives you crazy and hits you right in the heart.

In Case of Emergency
Poorna Bell
Premium Fiction
Fiction
Hardback
Waking up in hospital after a dangerous accident, Bel realises she should reconnect with the most important people from her past. Bel's HR record still lists her ex as her next of kin, but she can't think of a less appropriate person to nurse her back to health. But who can she turn to in a crisis? Over-invested parents? A sister whose life has turned out perfectly? Friends she exchanges dating woes with over cocktails?
Taylor Jenkins Reid Review
It is a joy to read a debut that has such heart, humor, and pathos that the main character starts to feel like a friend you can't help but root for. Poorna Bell's lively Bel Kumar is exactly that. This story, her journey of trying to reconnect with her friends and family after a freak accident, is a pleasure.

Mexican Gothic
Silvia Moreno-Garcia
Fiction
Paperback
An electrifying chiller that plays with the conventions and form of the gothic thriller quite brilliantly. He is trying to poison me. You must come for me, Noemi. You have to save me. When glamorous socialite Noemi Taboada receives a frantic letter from her newlywed cousin begging to be rescued from a mysterious doom, it's clear something is desperately amiss. Catalina has always had a flair for the dramatic, but her claims that her husband is poisoning her and her visions of restless ghosts seem remarkable, even for her.
Taylor Jenkins Reid Review
If you want a book that is going to grip you early on and keep you turning the pages, blowing your mind, getting as wild and out there as possible, look no further. I found it unputdownable.
