Mohamed's Top Reads of 2025

Explore the team’s favourite books of 2025! Choosing three from an entire year is a challenge and more recent reads tend to obscure what you read in February. Still, there are those that stay with you through the months. Why three? Because it's more than one but less than a list. The rules are: they don't need to have been published in 2025, but you need to have read or re-read it this year.

These are Mohamed's choices!

I Will Always Be Looking for You - Haven for Artists

Dispersals - Jessica J Lee

Giovanni's Room - James Baldwin

How to Mend – Motherhood and Its Ghosts - Iman Mersal (which may be out of print just now, but her Traces of Enayat is also beautiful and available)
