There’s a lot of hype around #Room706 by Ellie Levenson, despite it not coming out until early next year, and I was desperate to get my hands on it. It tells the story of Kate and James, who are trapped in a hotel room when the building is taken under siege by a terrorist group.



It’s tense and taut and really makes you think about what and who matters the most. I think this will be huge next year, and deservedly so. Big thanks to Lou Swannell and Headline Books for my early proof. #Room706
