So excited that City of Laughter is out today in the UK! ❤️
A rich and riveting debut spanning four generations of Eastern European Jewish women bound by blood, half-hidden secrets and the fantastical visitation of a shapeshifting stranger over the course of 100 years.

I couldn’t blurb as many debut novels this year as I did last year bc I was busy touring but - here are 5 coming in 2025! Debut novels need a lot of support to thrive, especially now, so I hope you’ll consider picking one or a couple up!

I simply do not understand how we are already booking events for mid 2025. In my mind it is March 2024

Every time I read a book by a friend and it ends up being a book I really love, regardless of our friendship, a part of my soul lights up

This month I barely drank, made salads for lunch, read ten books, and worked out 3-4 times a week and i feel great. Please don't tell me, of all things - balance is the secret to health
