Honey

‘Honey is a potent and addicting rollercoaster of a read. I’m awed at how deftly Imani Thompson puts sex, blood and rage on the page. A worryingly relatable, deliciously dark debut – Yrsa serves up the unhinged hot girl homicide I didn’t know I needed’ Sophie Duker

‘A wonderfully sticky debut, impossible to predict or to forget’ Erin Kelly, author of The House of Mirrors

‘Juicy, dark, addictive, and truly clever. Yrsa is the antihero we've been waiting for — very few of us could fail to understand her righteous anger, if not her measures…’ Silvia Saunders, author of Homesick

'Phenomenal. The voice is utterly singular, the writing is stunning, and it's just so clever and sharp. It reminded me of Promising Young Woman (except it didn't pull *any* punches) with a touch of Such a Fun Age and Never Saw Me Coming' Louise O'Neill, author of Idol

'Wow, basically. It’s a cracking read, crackling with energy and wit, but full of tension and pathos, too. The writing is brilliant and, for a stone-cold killer, Yrsa is a warm and engaging protagonist. A one-sit read' Harriet Tyce, author of Blood Orange

'It would feel slightly cheap or easy to call Imani Thompson’s Honey, ‘whip smart’ and ‘wildly entertaining’ because it’s so much more … Honey is a marvel of a novel, a story that breathes beyond its pages, makes you laugh, makes you angry and makes you want to learn in equal measure. It’s a book that quite frankly, should be studied' Ore Agbaje-Williams, author of The Three of Us

'Dark, thrilling and undeniably hot, this novel will leave you gasping for air' Glamour

'Imani is a writer to watch and Honey is the entertaining (and quietly damning) read you'll need to kick off spring' Elle

'A twisted comeuppance story, a campus-life spoof, and a look at the dating-app generation of women negotiating how their desire to be desired might sit with the feminism they treasure. Wow. Think Fleabag channeled by Valerie Solanas' Kirkus
