Wild Things

'A totally gorgeous read' BETH O'LEARY, author of THE FLATSHARE

One of my favourite books of 2023. It captures the pleasure/pain of a huge, heartfelt crush, and it also beautifully evokes the warmth of a loving community. I would love to stop by 'the commune' for a cup of tea with them all. A totally gorgeous read Beth O'Leary, author of THE NO-SHOW
