Truth or Dare being used in the ‘South Asian Literature in English’ course by the English department in the Independent University, Bangladesh has to be one of the highlights of my writing career! Amazing presentations by the students. #writer

I guess this is as good a time as any to let you all know that my 4th book is out in the World.
In the Shadows of Love explores the complexity of marriage in modern Pakistan. A lifetime of secrets. A message that could change her life.

Also, my debut is currently for 99p. Yes, cheaper than a coffee. So if you fancy reading all about secrets and lies of Pakistan's high society, then this is the novel for you.

Went to see Buddha of Suburbia (Hanif Kureishi) at The Barbican Theatre. A brilliant production - funny, poignant & hard hitting. The book had a profound impact on me as it was one of the first books in mainstream English literature that I read which had characters like me. It made me feel seen. 🤩

Is it just me or does Bluesky feel like a much less angry place? I’m definitely liking this. Or maybe I’m too new to it and haven’t discovered the ranty (yes it’s a word 👀) people 🤩😁
