MRS. S by @K__Patrick - a hot summer read 🔥
A hugely addictive novel set within the elite, traditional, and claustrophobic atmosphere of a girls' private boarding school, and about a forbidden affair between the headmaster's wife and the matron, I loved every word.
“There are more of us. We came out of a time when birth was happy.”

i loved hearing @K__Patrick speak last night at @pagesofhackney - Mrs S is such a special book to me through abstraction and transness and eroticism — "thinking through the body for a protagonist who is in the process of deciding their body"
So exciting to see MRS. S by @K__Patrick and EVENINGS AND WEEKENDS by @Ois_McK included on @StylistMagazine's list of 11 brilliant LGBTQ+ novels to read this summer 🌞🌈
