'A compassionate, beautifully told portrait' GUY GUNARATNE'This is absorbing, witty, eloquent fiction, as well as a trenchant political critique' TOM BENN'A hymn to empathy, alive with care and love' REBECCA WATSON'A heartbreaking, honest, and deeply important story' JYOTI PATELJamila Shah is twenty-nine and exhausted.

An immigration solicitor tasked with running the precious family law firm, Jamila is prone to being woken in the middle of the night by frantic phone calls from clients on the cusp of deportation. Working under the shadow of the government's 'hostile environment', she constantly prays and hopes that their 'determinations' will result in her clients being allowed to stay.

With no time for friends, family or even herself (never mind a needy partner), Jamila's life feels hectic and out of control. Then a breakdown of sorts forces her to seek change - to pursue her own happiness while navigating the endless expectations that the world seems to have of her, and still committing herself to a career devoted to helping others.

In this polyphonic, assured and character-driven debut, we meet the staff of Shah & Co Solicitors, who themselves arrived in the UK not too long ago, and their clients, more recent arrivals who are made to jump through hoops to create a life for themselves whilst trying to achieve some semblance of normality.

Fun premise
Format: Kindle
Patriarch of Yotsurugi crime family dies and leaves the organisation to his only biological son, Hibaru, who is only 15. But he doesn't want to lead, so he lies to the family that his step-brother, Terasu, one of the twelve adopted children of the patriarch, was chosen in his stead. Other adopted siblings won't take this without a fight. Hibaru might be at disadvantage, but a meteor strikes and many people gain astro powers, great strength or other superpowers, Hibaru included. He sets out to take over the organisation after all, relying on his powers, but turns out, his siblings have gained those too. This had a fun premise. Hibaru is an idealist who wants to run an ethical crime organisation, and isn't afraid to fight for his ideals. But with everyone being super-powered, it's mostly about violence, though with some sibling stuff in the mix. I was bored most of the time. I wasn't fan of the art either.

A freaky adolescent rush of fun and horror
Format: Kindle
This is a series that wears it's inspirations proudly on it's sleeve (mainly the early aughts toonami block) and isn't afraid to show how much it loves them. The amazing creature visuals are perfect amounts of gorgeous and grotesque, complimented wonderfully by these quiet slice of life scenes that feel intimate and human. READ THIS, I BEG YOU!!!

A Experience to Be Read
Format: Paperback
I bought the first issue when the series debuted but couldn't afford to continue. So I'm glad I found this volume 1 trade paperback. On first read, it has a few inspirations from Japanese manga from panel layouts to manga/anime character tropes. That being the case, it carves its own identity as a romance story between a normal orphan boy and a centuries old vampire and their daily lives in an alternate history USA. I like mash-up of different cultures from German and Japanese to Spanish and English including the music, the written languages, and other aspects. Nights has a vibe not everyone will like off bat, but I'll will vouch that anyone should give it a try.
