DUA LIPA Book Recommendations & Book Mentions

DUA LIPA

It’s a crime novel, but much more than a mere whodunnit... Darkly humorous, deadly serious, and with a quirky cast of characters that will stay with you forever, this is definitely not to be missed. The author won the Nobel Prize in Literature, and when you read this novel you’ll see why.

Last but certainly not least, author Lillian Fishman shares an excerpt from her recently released debut novel ‘Acts of Service’ – a provocative exploration of sexual desire.

DUA LIPA

A beautiful coming-of-age love story set against the brutal political backdrop of Communist Poland... reading [it] is a bit like peering into someone’s most intimate moments of self-discovery. It’s poetic and tender, burning with a quiet rage... It’s a beautiful story.

This book brilliantly surfaces a multitude of questions about race, class, and gender... I was struck by how the novel so cleverly raises questions of heritage and identity while remaining non-judgmental, empathetic, and full of heart. I raced through this book and I’m sure you will too.

I got actual chills when I read the opening scenes... Alana S. Portero’s vivid portrait of a young Trans girl growing up in 1980s Madrid had me hooked from the very first page... It’s a study on identity, love and acceptance... This is a book to savour. Enjoy every word

Chimamanda is a master storyteller and I guarantee you will be totally absorbed by the parallel love stories between Olanna and Odenigbo, and Kainene and Richard. I found their different outlooks on relationships fascinating…

I loved this unique, bold and compassionate book... a story of one of the most famous men in history – President Abraham Lincoln – grieving for his dead son... narrated by a cacophony of monologuing, bickering ghosts... There is no one writing today who can match George Saunders for compassion and empathy.

DUA LIPA

A deceptively brief novel about making difficult decisions in dark times. The moral dilemma at the heart of this quiet but intense story about the Magdalene laundry scandal in Ireland stayed with me long after I’d finished reading.

Patti is an absolute rock and roll icon and a personal hero of mine so I am beyond excited to dive into this book... possibly the most spellbinding account of New York in the ’70s ever written.

I read the novel On Earth We’re Briefly Gorgeous by Ocean Vuong while on tour and the language often stopped me in my tracks... It’s not an obvious beach read, but I’m looking forward to being still and having the space to read and then reread his powerful words.
