Eliza Chan recommends

This is Where the Future Bleeds (2026)
Mike Brooks
"The most dysfunctional, chaotic and stabby found family you'll ever read. This is Where the Future Bleeds is a joyful and irreverent action adventure about upending destinies and the status quo. Ridiculously good fun."

Love, Gods and Sinners (2026)
Camille Chong
"Messy queers flirt and fight across the city in this fast-paced urban fantasy. Filled with back stabbing, elicit longing and the epitome of the phrase 'love hurts'. What more could you ask for?"

The Rainshadow Orphans (2026)
(Rainshadow Orphans Trilogy, book 1)
Naomi Ishiguro
"A breathtaking adventure set in an immersive cityscape like no other. The Rainshadow Orphans has a wonderful cast reminiscent of Avatar: The Last Airbender, and a message of hope that made my diaspora heart soar."
