'The Vanishing Half is an utterly mesmerising novel. It seduces with its literary flair, surprises with its breath-taking plot twists, delights with its psychological insights, and challenges us to consider the corrupting consequences of racism on different communities and individual lives. I absolutely loved this book' Bernardine Evaristo, winner of the Booker Prize 2019The Vignes twin sisters will always be identical. But after growing up together in a small, southern black community and running away at age sixteen, it's not just the shape of their daily lives that is different as adults, it's everything: their families, their communities, their racial identities. Ten years later, one sister lives with her black daughter in the same southern town she once tried to escape. The other secretly passes for white, and her white husband knows nothing of her past. Still, even separated by so many miles and just as many lies, the fates of the twins remain intertwined. What will happen to the next generation, when their own daughters' story lines intersect?Weaving together multiple strands and generations of this family, from the Deep South to California, from the 1950s to the 1990s, Brit Bennett produces a story that is at once a riveting, emotional family story and a brilliant exploration of the American history of passing. Looking well beyond issues of race, The Vanishing Half considers the lasting influence of the past as it shapes a person's decisions, desires, and expectations, and explores some of the multiple reasons and realms in which people sometimes feel pulled to live as something other than their origins.Praise for Brit Bennett: 'A writer to watch' Washington Post 'Bennett allows her characters to follow their worst impulses, and she handles provocative issues with intelligence, empathy and dark humour' New York Times 'A beautifully written, sad and lingering book' Guardian on The Mothers

Is it love? Is it hate? Or is it a chronic case of the ick?Gem is chronically single, with a chronic case of the ick. Every man she meets seems perfect on paper, some of them even seem perfect in person - until she notices something... They snort when they laugh, they use too many exclamation marks, they love wearing a silk dressing gown, their jeans are just a bit too blue and a bit too skinny - and she's completely, irrevocably put off. Gem claims it's her intuition telling her that they're incompatible, but her housemate, Shanti, doesn't agree. After a string of bad dates, Shanti, who is training to become a Clinical Psychologist, tells Gem that she'll pay her to take part in her study: Is intuition real?Cue Atlas, who's putting the theory to the test. On paper, he passes with flying colours. He's employed, his hair appears to be his own, he has friends, a nice smile, and a decent sense of humour. But, as soon as she sees Atlas in person, Gem gets hit by the ick. He's carrying a bag that is so big it makes him look like a turtle. This, combined with his ridiculous name, means he already has two strikes against him. Every fibre of her body is telling her to leave the date early, but thanks to Shanti's study, Gem breaks all her own rules -- going on a second date, a third, and even a fourth, until she starts losing count. Can Gem do the impossible and actually start falling for Atlas? And what happens when he finds out she's being paid to date him?A sexy, swoon-worthy and hilarious romantic comedy, perfect for fans of Emily Henry and Ali Hazlewood.
