Mia (2026)
Leslie Bazzett
"In this extraordinary debut novel, Leslie Bazzett invites us to the expatriate community of San Miguel de Allende, then drops us head first into a personal labyrinth in which a mother walks the fine line between good friendship and borderline obsession. Any woman who has sought a bit of reinvention will find Sally and Louise's relationship is as familiar as it is strange. In a voice reminiscent of Deborah Levy and Rachel Cusk, Bazzett has crafted a slow burn that, in the end, fully ignites and surprises. Mia is a great read."

Super Bloom (2023)
Megan Tady
"Super Bloom is that rare sort of novel that's both a blast to read and leaves you thinking about the characters long after you've finished the last page. Set in a spa in Vermont (who doesn't want to go there for a while?) Megan Tady delivers a terrific satirical world in which our heroine--a down and out massage therapist mourning a lost love--has to fight her way back to happiness. Throw in some entitled clients and a narcissistic romance novelist with truly evil intentions, and you've got a sure hit from a wonderfully gifted new debut novelist. Can't wait to see what she writes next!"

The End of Getting Lost (2022)
Robin Kirman
"The End of Getting Lost is a beautifully written love story with plenty of twists and turns. I adored going back to a time when we could actually vanish without an electronic trace. And what better place to do so than the shadows of Europe? Robin Kirman is wonderfully deft with suspense and plot. This is a true dark delight."
