Lauren Ling Brown recommends

The Girls Trip (2026)
Ally Condie
"The Girls Trip is a thrilling adventure novel and mystery wrapped into one. It drew me in right away and would not let me go. I've been an Ally Condie fan for years. I loved The Unwedding, and this one is even better. I was on the edge of my seat, and there were several times that I nearly screamed, the twists were that good. If you like a fast-paced thriller about friendship, survival, and deadly secrets, this is it."

The Book of Luke (2025)
Lovell Holder
"Bold and provocative, The Book of Luke is equal parts satire and drama, told through the lens of a reality television contestant in the midst of a divorce from his husband. Holder writes with both wit and frankness as he navigates queer identity, reality television, and love. It had me laughing and tearing up - sometimes both at the same time."

With Friends Like These (2025)
Alissa Lee
"Readers of Dark Academia, take note: Alissa Lee is a bold new voice to watch. With captivating prose, she spins a tale of privilege, ambition, and buried secrets as former Harvard classmates find themselves caught in a dangerous game long after graduation. WITH FRIENDS LIKE THESE left me breathless until the very last page."
