She is drawn to books which have interesting takes on the everyday, which shine a light on an unexplored aspect of history or ourselves, and which encourage us to think more deeply about our place in the world. In fiction, she is looking for outstanding writing which shines a light on humanity, an unforgettable cast of characters, literary thrillers, and smart women's fiction.
