The BBC Radio 2 Book Club's choice, "Spoonbenders," has been acquired by Paramount for television. The New York Times Book Review describes it as "funny and charming... tailor-made for summer... magical," while The Guardian calls it "hilarious, unrestrained." Cynthia D'Aprix Sweeney also refers to it as "gloriously inventive."

The story follows the remarkable Telemachus family, who gained great fame in the mid-1970s through their magic and mind-reading act, until the magic mysteriously vanished one night, live on national television. Two decades later, grandson Matty, who was born long after the family's public downfall, discovers powers within himself and realizes that his beleaguered, heavily indebted family is indeed extraordinary. "Spoonbenders" explores the legacy and legend of a dysfunctional, ordinary, yet completely unique family across three generations of larger-than-life personalities and socially awkward misfits, all burdened with the potential to be something special.
