'The type of book you'll want to gulp down in one breathless sitting . . . A summer in Athens? Check. Millennial malaise? Check. A steamy affair that upends everything? Check' GUARDIAN
-----
At a crossroads in their relationship, Emma and Julian agree to house-sit for a friend in Athens over the course of an oppressive summer. Their plans take an unexpected turn when they meet Lena, an enigmatic young Greek woman who presents an opportunity for them to explore their relationship in uncharted and thrillingly risky ways. But as the heat in the city grows stifling, Emma and Julian find themselves far more entangled in Lena's life than they'd bargained for. What follows is a highly-charged three-way struggle for control, as Emma, Julian and Lena are suddenly faced with consequences far greater - and far more dangerous - than they could have predicted.

Recenzii
A summer in Athens? Check. Millennial malaise? Check. A steamy affair that upends everything? Check. Amy Taylor's second novel has all the hallmarks of popular contemporary fiction, imbued with her signature tenderness and intelligence. . . . Taylor mixes literary musings with juicy plot twists and plenty of interpersonal drama - this is a moreish reading experience, the type of book you'll want to gulp down in one breathless sitting
Ruins is a tangled web that keeps you turning pages, reading with your heart in your throat as you extrapolate the many (many) ways things could - and do - go wrong
An atmospheric, deftly paced novel of longing, lust, and ill-fated adventure, offering a compelling portrait of a couple straining under the mounting pressure of competing visions of the future
Reading this book felt like watching a train wreck in slow motion, which I mean as the highest possible compliment. I loved Amy Taylor's debut, Search History. Ruins has cemented her as an author whose every book I will read
Amy Taylor has somehow managed to combine a darkly sexy summer page-turner and a whip-smart interrogation of class and privilege in one book. I could not put this down!
Ruins is a sensory feast.Thrilling yet overwhelmingly human, it's the kind of book you can't help but eat up in one sitting. Amy Taylor is at the top of her game
Compelling, daring, and darkly atmospheric, Ruins delivers a riveting dramatic performance to match its scorching Athenian setting
