Can't wait to read Yellowface and The Rachel Incident, this is a great list.
Romantic Comedy is already one of my books of the year - and for anyone interested, my bookshop has signed copies to pre-order with silly little Curtis Sittenfeld fangirl keyrings -
Arghhh so excited for Rosewater and intrigued by Romantic Comedy - it is indeed going to be a fabulous year of books. Cannot wait. My pre-order list is long.

Thanks for the reco’s too!

Thank you so much for sharing! Adding a few of these books to my list.
Two weeks on from publication, and ‘breathing into a paper bag’ is the perfect description! 🙃 And love this - I am adding Yellow Face to my list.
Congratulations!
Also loving the articles you shared, especially the white review : there are only girls on the internet.
So good, isn't it. If you haven't yet read, I really recommend Rebecca's piece for Another Gaze in 2019 on the fixed idea of millennial womanhood
