Publisher's Summary

'Captures the fierceness of female friendship' BETH O'LEARY | 'The essential book on sisterhood' NIKITA GILL
Shortlisted for the Diverse Book Awards 2023

Three women. One life-changing friendship. One chance to stop it all falling apart . . .

Jenna, Kees and Malak have been friends for years: the three of them together against the world. But when one night changes everything, they're left adrift from one another as their lives take different paths.

Encountering new milestones and heartbreaks without each other's support feels increasingly difficult--in the wake of heartbreaks, marriages, new careers and new beginnings, they need each other more than ever. Will they be able to forgive each other in time?

These Impossible Things tells the story of three British Muslim women reconciling love, loss, womanhood, faith and how we navigate the bumps in life that can feel impossible to overcome.

Exquisite!

This novel had me captivated as I laughed, cried and loved alongside Kees, Jenna, and Malak. We need more books in this world about vibrant real women such as these.
