WIVES LIKE US by Plum Sykes
A starred review from Kirkus for Plum Sykes’ WIVES LIKE US raves: “Sykes gives Kevin Kwan a run for his money in this saga of obscene wealth, designer outfits, miniature dog breeds, and over-the-top landscaping set in Oxfordshire, a rural area of vast estates now mostly in the hands of the nouveau riche…Crazy Rich Brits may not have the amazing cuisine of their Asian counterparts, but they are just as scheming, fabulous, and fun to read about…you’ll dive in and never look back.” The book was also featured in the UK’s The Times, where Simon Mills writes: “Its publication may still be two months away, but a new novel by Plum Sykes…is already being feverishly discussed…Attempting to do for the Cotswolds what F Scott Fitzgerald did for West Egg and its inspiration, the Hamptons (and what Peter Mayle did for Provence), WIVES LIKE US, set in the super-rich houses of West Oxfordshire, is a bandbox shiny satirette of country living where everyone is unmuddied but filthy rich.” Harper will publish WIVES LIKE US on May 14, 2024.

WAYS AND MEANS by Daniel Lefferts
In a glowing review, the New York Journal of Books celebrated the "virtuosic storytelling" of WAYS AND MEANS by Daniel Lefferts, declaring the book "an amazing debut novel from a prodigiously gifted young writer” and “a fascinating, complex, often funny saga of life in our troubled time.” A review in The Rumpus compares the novel to the works of Edmund White, praising its "freshness," "clever melding of high and low," and "propulsive energy," as well as "the wise and even important story Lefferts’ novel has to tell about power in sexual relations" with an "achingly self-conscious" voice. WAYS AND MEANS was published by Abrams on February 6, 2024.
