The Seven Moons of Maali Almeida is the thrilling metaphysical journey through the afterlife of war photographer Maali Almeida. After Maali wakes up dead in what reminds him of a dreary office, he soon realises that his dismembered body is quickly sinking into the Beira Lake with no idea who is responsible for his death. The secrets he lived by left him with a depressingly long list to sift through. But even in the afterlife, Maali is running out of time to contact the people he loves and lead them to a hidden stockpile of photos that will rock Sri Lanka. Written by Shehan Karunatilaka and winner of The Booker Prize 2022, this tale of magical realism is intertwined with hints of science fiction.

Sunny is no stranger to living a double life. Yes, she's 30 and living her best life, but she has just moved back in with her parents while everyone around her is getting married, buying new homes and having children. She's also a serial dater who, given her living arrangements, has to sneak out of her house every night of the week, feeding her parents a pile of white lies along the way. One day, her two lives collide in the most embarrassing ways and it seems that only the truth will help Sunny get out of her predicament this time. But her mother isn't exactly mad, to her surprise and horror. She's ready to strike a deal. Sunny can keep dating, but her mother will decide who. Sunny, written by Sukh Ojla, is a refreshing and, at times, surprising listen that will have you coming back for more.

- The Secret Diaries of Charles Ignatius Sancho by Paterson Joseph
-
The Secret Diaries of Charles Ignatius Sancho, written by Paterson Joseph, has been chosen as The Times’ biggest book for Autumn 2022 and is a riveting deep dive into Georgian London like you’ve never heard before. 1746 Georgian London is not a safe place for a black man, especially one who has escaped slavery. But despite everything that could have and did stand in his path, Charles Ignatius Sancho went on to live an extraordinary life. He graced the stages of London’s theatres, became a highly acclaimed musician and composer, a leading abolitionist, met the King and became the very first Black person to vote in Britain. Now, it is time for Charles to tell his story that begins in the middle of the Atlantic Ocean and ends in London’s history books.
