About

Introducing two brilliant emerging writers, Joanna Miller andJessica Stanley, selected by and in conversation with Jennie Godfrey. Though set over a century apart, both debut novels share the evergreen themes of love, friendship, and survival in trying times. The Eights follows four young women as they make their way in 1920 as some of the first female students admitted to Oxford University. Consider Yourself Kissed is a captivating love story set against the political and personal upheaval of Brexit, Covid and a chaotic decade of five prime ministers.
My book of the year Jill Mansell (The Eights)
The perfect novel India Knight (Consider Yourself Kissed)
