Lies and Weddings
"Brought to you by Penguin.
THE NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER FROM THE AUTHOR OF CRAZY RICH ASIANS
Eden Tong is used to feeling out of place. Growing up next door to Greshamsbury Manor, she spent her days in the shadow of the chilly matriarch Arabella and her children: free-spirited Augie, golden child Bea, and Rufus, Eden’s childhood best friend.
When she receives an invite to a luxurious wedding in Hawaii, she finds herself thrown back into the family’s orbit: and face-to-face with Rufus. The future Earl is gorgeous, artistic, and – unbeknownst to Eden – desperately in love with her.
But his mother has other plans. Arabella knows the terrible truth – the Greshamsbury family is drowning in debt. Rufus needs to find a match with serious money to keep them afloat. Arabella is prepared to destroy anyone who gets in her way. Including Eden . . .
Lies and Wedding transports its reader from the white-sand beaches of Hawaii to the colourful medinas of Marrakech, via the glitzy bachelor pads of Beverly Hills and opulent English countryside manors. This is a hilarious, juicy, and page-turning story about love and money – and the lies we tell to keep them.

Three Rooms
"Brought to you by Penguin.
It's autumn 2018 and a young woman moves into a rented room in university accommodation, ready to begin a job as a research assistant at Oxford. Here, living and working in the spaces that have birthed the country's leaders, she is both outsider and insider, and she can't shake the feeling that real life is happening elsewhere.
Eight months later she finds herself in London. She's landed a temp contract at a society magazine and is paying £80 a week to sleep on a stranger's sofa. Summer rolls on and England roils with questions around its domestic civil rights: Brexit, Grenfell, climate change, homelessness. Meanwhile, tensions with her flatmate escalate, she is overworked and underpaid, and the prospects of a permanent job seem increasingly unlikely, until finally she has to ask herself: what is this all for?
Incisive, original and brilliantly observed, Three Rooms is the story of a search for a home and for a self. Driven by despair and optimism in equal measure, the novel poignantly explores politics, race and belonging, as Jo Hamya asks us to consider the true cost of living as a young person in 21st-century England.
'I was bowled over by this barbed, supple book about precarity and power, both for its spiky, unsettling intelligence and the frank beauty of the writing' OLIVIA LAING
'Jo Hamya is an exceptionally gifted writer. Her portrait of a bright young woman struggling to get a foothold in an indifferent world is acute, informed, and deeply felt. Three Rooms slowly but surely broke my heart' CLAIRE-LOUISE BENNETT
