Book Club'Be sure to read everything Sophie Mackintosh writes' Deborah Levy'Definitely don't
miss the return of Sophie Mackintosh' Stylist Calla knows how the lottery works. Everyone does.
On the day of your first bleed  you report to the lottery station to learn what kind of woman
you will be. A white ticket grants you children. A blue ticket grants you freedom. You are
relieved of the terrible burden of choice. Or  to put it another way  you have no choice. And
once you've taken your ticket  there is no going back. But what if the life you're given is the
wrong one? Blue Ticket is a devastating enquiry into free will and the fraught space of
motherhood. Bold and chilling  it pushes beneath the skin of female identity and patriarchal
violence  to the point where human longing meets our animal bodies. 'Dreamlike  tense 
compelling  [with] a pitch-perfect ending' The New York Times 'Gripping  ethereal  atmospheric'
Sunday Times 'Thoughtful and haunting' Observer'Terrifying and enchanting in equal measure'
LitHub 'Blue Ticket will worms its way under your skin and haunt your dreams' Red
