Adele Parks’ Both of You is unstoppable in paperback!


With a phenomenal UK sub of nearly 83,000 copies, Both Of You by Adele Parks MBE was out in paperback earlier this month.

It has quickly hit the Sunday Times bestselling chart for Fiction Paperbacks at no. 2! It also topped the Amazon Charts’ Most-Sold: Fiction as reported in the Bookseller. This past week saw Adele Parks appear on Times Radio to discuss the paperback release of Both of You. She has also featured in the Sun, the Express, Brinkwire, Mail Online, Stoke Sentinel and the Birmingham Mail.

‘As always with Adele Parks this is an absolutely gripping read’ Richard Osman

‘Yet another stick of literary dynamite from Adele Parks: chilling, gripping and entirely unputdownable’ Lisa Jewell

‘Really enjoyed this! Kept me guessing and had me gasping at the twist’ Ian Rankin

‘Ambitious, nail-biting, darkly voyeuristic – I tore through it in two sittings’ Louise Candlish

‘Clever and twisty’ Fabulous

‘Smart and thought-provoking with an absolutely brilliant mid-point twist’ T.M. Logan

‘Sizzling. Shocking. Sassy’ Jane Corry

‘A dark and intense tale that will keep you turning the pages’ Jane Fallon

‘Crackles with toxic relationships, dark desires and shocking twists’ Eve Chase

‘Clever and full of unexpected turns’ Woman & Home

‘Taut, raw, emotionally astute, clever and shocking. Parks gets better and better – a writer at the mind-blowing top of her game’ Gillian McAllister

‘Deliciously dark, sharp and intriguing … Another brilliant page-turner from domestic noir queen Adele Parks’ Tasmina Perry

‘Wildly compelling’ Rachel Edwards

Finally, the heart-warming story of Adele’s book dedication must be shared.

We all rely on the tech team to keep us up and running, but they don’t often get high profile shout-outs from our illustrious authors. That just changed, as Adele Parks let it be known that if not for our very own Abdu Mohammed Ali, fifteen years of work including the working manuscript for her last novel Both of You would have been lost to a virus.

Adele told the story at an event last week, naming Abdu as ‘that genius man’, which was then picked up by the Evening Standard. Adele was so grateful not to have to start at page one again, she even dedicated Both of You to her tech team saviour!
