Mary Adkins recommends
The Last Sunday in May (2026)
Kate Clark Stone
"This full-of-heart, quick-paced debut is a story I'll never forget. It's Taylor Jenkins Reid's Atmosphere but for race car driving. But it's more than a story about a brave pioneer. It's about motherhood and compromise, passion and ambition, and what it means to feel alive and not just be alive. Like any great sports saga, it brings the tender, underdog pull of Ted Lasso to the gritty and greasy world of race cars. I could almost smell gas as I was reading."
The Liquid Eye of a Moon (2024)
Uchenna Awoke
"After reading only the first paragraph of The Liquid Eye of a Moon, I knew this story was special. Awoke's prose is immersive and alive, and you sink into it without effort. I had to blink a few times whenever I stopped reading, and I always looked forward to sinking back in. A beautiful coming-of-age story I will not forget."
Cover Story (2022)
Susan Rigetti
"Cover Story is pure delight from its deceptively sweet start to its shocking finish - an ingenue tale unlike any I've read before. I audibly gasped at the end. Unpredictable, satisfying, and full of surprises."
