Nine Tailed (2024)
(Realm of Four Kingdoms, book 1)
Jayci Lee
"Jayci Lee's Nine Tailed gives Janet-Evanovich-meets-Buffy vibes in a vibrant fantasy setting full of Korean mythology. If you're in the mood for some spicy, magical fun, this is the book for you."

Haunted Ever After (2024)
(Boneyard Key, book 1)
Jen DeLuca
"Haunted Ever After is Jen DeLuca's best yet, and that's saying something. A deeply satisfying brew of longing, feels, and ghostly hijinks, this is a love story that delivers the goods. Plus, DeLuca's thoughtful commentary on the expectations we place on women - past and present - is cinnamon on the banana bread. Oh, my romantic, feminist heart!"

A Letter to the Luminous Deep (2024)
(Sunken Archive, book 1)
Sylvie Cathrall
"A Letter to the Luminous Deep is like nothing I've read before. The heartfelt intimacy of the epistolary narrative, juxtaposed with the magnificent oceanic world-building, results in a novel that is at once deeply human and mind-bogglingly imaginative. Both the setting and the story are exquisite, but it was the lovingly crafted voices of the characters that kept me hooked from beginning to end."
