DUA LIPA’S SERVICE95 BOOK CLUB ANNOUNCES AUGUST’S MONTHLY READ: “LOST LAMBS” BY MADELINE CASH
Dua Lipa’s Service95 Book Club announces details for August’s monthly read, Lost Lambs by Madeline Cash. The Service95 Book Club will offer exclusive content from Dua and Madeline throughout the month on service95.com, across socials, and via the Service95 Book Club With Dua Lipa podcast, where readers can listen to Dua’s interview with Madeline starting today.
Speaking about Lost Lambs, Dua shares:
“‘Lost Lambs’ by Madeline Cash is possibly the most hyped novel of 2026. It’s packed with a dysfunctional family, a bloodthirsty billionaire, conspiracy theories, online radicalisation, an infestation of gnats and, at its heart, a search for identity and meaning.
The story follows the unravelling of the Flynn family. Parents Catherine and Bud decide to open up their marriage. Catherine is day-drinking while Bud is coasting through his deadbeat job at Alabaster Harbor. Their three daughters – Abigail, Louise and Harper – rebel and scream for attention in their own ways.
Madeline writes at full volume – reading ‘Lost Lambs’ can feel like scrolling an overstimulating social feed. But she keeps sight of the tenderness at the heart of the Flynn family and, hidden among the drama is a lot of truth about connection and why it matters. It’s funny, fast and intoxicating.”

In Dua’s interview with Madeline, the pair discuss family dysfunction, modern discontent despite privilege, the novel’s – and society’s – obsession with youth, and the joy of using humor and absurdity to explore serious issues. As with other monthly reads, readers can check out Madeline’s recommended reading list and playlist to accompany Lost Lambs. For readers looking to explore the novel’s themes even further, Service95 has commissioned a piece that explores the Flynn family through a therapist’s view: A Psychologist’s Guide To The Flynns, and a curated list of Books To Read When Your Family Is As Dysfunctional As The Flynns.
The Service95 Book Club is the latest extension of Service95 – a global cultural platform and community that also consists of a weekly newsletter and Dua’s At Your Service podcast. The Service95 Book Club is a place where Dua shares her favorite reads straight from her bookshelf, alongside countless recommendations, reviews and interviews from the Service95 team and beyond. Dua’s conversations with the authors – from Margaret Atwood to Olga Tokarczuk and Ocean Vuong – peel back the layers behind stories selected from around the world and have gone on to earn her the title of “one of Britain’s foremost literary tastemakers” from The Telegraph and “the queen of trendsetting literary taste” from The Independent. In addition, the Service95 Book Club podcast was recognized among the Best Podcasts of the Week by The Guardian upon launch and landed atop Spotify’s list of the Best Video Podcasts of 2025.
