5-Star Books in Five Words

This is an occasional feature on the Hive which is one of our favourites, so we decided to bring it back for Runalong Womble‘s celebration of Small Presses! If you missed Jonathan’s incredible directory of Small Presses, or our appreciation post of our favourite presses, Womble is spear-heading a month-long celebration of presses which don’t fall under the Big 5 umbrella – #SmallPressGreatReads.

In this post, our contributors are going to recommend some of their favourite books published by small presses – using only five words!
