Becky Chalsen recommends
Welcome Home, Caroline Kline (2024)
Courtney Preiss
"With warmth, humor, and that special brand of New Jersey suburban splendor, Welcome Home, Caroline Kline is the perfect messy, mid-twenties coming-of-age story that should be required reading for anyone looking to find their place in the world. Preiss' prose absolutely shimmers as she sends Caroline on an endearing journey of discovery, from begrudgingly subbing for her ailing dad on his local men's softball league to reopening her recently broken heart to a romance of her youth. A novel that perfectly captures all those nostalgic yet life-affirming feelings that arise when returning to one's roots, Preiss' first publishing 'at bat' is a total home run. This is a debut not to be missed!"
The Second Chance Hotel (2023)
Sierra Godfrey
"Anyone who has ever dared to wonder 'what if' will find themselves swooning over this unputdownable novel, and instantly signing up for a summer at the Ria Hotel. Best paired with a glass of wine and some fresh olive oil, I loved every word."
