The Book Fairies of London hide copies of Young Women by Jessica Moor

“With all my other friends the story was predictable… Clearly Tamsin’s story was different.”

Young Women by Jessica Moor hidden by book fairies - Trafalgar Square — *“Any spiked thoughts disappeared when I stepped into the water…”*

The Book Fairies have been celebrating the release of Young Women this week by sharing copies in London and elsewhere in the UK! Some fairies went to locations that feature in this fresh new novel…

About the book:

Everyone’s got that history, I guess. Everyone’s got a story. When Emily meets the enigmatic and dazzling actress Tamsin, her life changes. Drawn into Tamsin’s world of Soho living, boozy dinners, and cocktails at impossibly expensive bars, Emily’s life shifts from black and white to technicolour and the two women become inseparable.

Young Women by Jessica Moor hidden by book fairies — *“I immersed myself to the shoulders, forced long, slow breaths.*
*She was right, of course: the water was cold. But it was pleasant, not cruel.”*

Tamsin is the friend Emily has always longed for; beautiful, fun, intelligent and mysterious and soon Emily is neglecting her previous life – her work assisting vulnerable women, her old friend Lucy – to bask in her glow. But when a bombshell news article about a decades-old sexual assault case breaks, Emily realises that Tamsin has been hiding a secret about her own past. Something that threatens to unravel everything…

Young Women is a razor sharp novel that slices to the heart of our most important relationships, and asks how complicit we all are in this world built for men.
