I’ve written a few thoughts on Birding by Rose Ruane, 2025, full of wit and wisdom, this story captures the painful process of growing up and examines issues around consent, identity, parenthood, friendship and trauma #bookstodon #WomensPrize #BookReview #Storygraph#audiobook @bookstodon

Just been catching up on the #WomensPrize for Fiction 2026 longlist and for the first time ever I’ve actually already read 2 of the books - Heart the Lover by Lilly King which I enjoyed very much but didn’t love, and Audition by Katie Kitamura which I was perplexed by but also found to be a brilliant read that readers interpret in many ways. Looking forward to reading some more from this year’s list!

I’ve written a few thoughts on Heart the Lover by Lily King, 2025, an enjoyable read about college days and the impact those early relationships can have later in life. I liked it but didn’t love it as much as I’d hoped to #bookstodon #reading #audiobook #BookReview #WomensPrize @bookstodon
