The summer holidays are finally here, and we hope you can get some much-needed rest! If you are anything like us, you will also have a good book with you wherever you go and whatever you do.
Not sure which books are worth carrying around? Why not start with the new releases below:
Just JJ’s top pick:
Title: The Oleander Sword
Author: Tasha Suri
Genre: Fantasy, LGBT
First impression: It is finally here!! I cannot wait for more of Priya and Malini!
Malini may be the rightful empress of Parijatdvipa, but, despite her rage and an army of loyal men, it will be a brutal fight to depose her brother. Priya dreams of freeing Parijatdvipa from the tainted rule and sickness plaguing its street. With her new-found power, this goal is closer than ever, but she cannot accomplish it only on her own. Although they parted ways to follow their chosen paths, only by working together can Malini and Priya save their kingdom from those who would rather see it burn.
