Kate Brody recommends
Paper Cut (2026)
Rachel Taff
"Smart, twisty, and evocative. Paper Cut drew me in with its Hollywood personalities, desert cultists, and buried secrets, but it kept me reading with its insights into the nature of art and family. I tore through Paper Cut in a single weekend, transported to its noirish west coast settings and enthralled by Taff's masterful storytelling. The kind of book you thrust in your best friend's hand so that you can discuss: what's the difference between our lies and the stories we tell ourselves in order to survive?"
Coram House (2025)
Bailey Seybolt
"Coram House is the perfect thriller - the kind you race to finish and simultaneously hope will never end. It checked every box for me: relatable amateur sleuth; lush, gothic setting; mystery spanning from past to present; and - no small feat - a surprising, inevitable, perfectly satisfying ending. This debut marks the entrance of a thriller writer to watch. I can tell already I'll be following Bailey Seybolt the way I follow Tana French. I can't wait to see what she writes next."
Nothing Serious (2025)
Emily J Smith
"This is the modern, feminist dating world thriller I've been waiting for. I tore through Nothing Serious over a single weekend. It's a fast-paced story with characters so fully realized they linger in your mind long after the central mystery has been resolved. Smith paints a fresh and honest portrait of 30-something life that is as hopeful as it is clear-eyed about the trap of 'having it all.' I know that this is a novel my friends and I will be referencing for years to come."
