Haley Jakobson recommends
Work Nights (2025)
Erica Peplin
"I read this book in one sitting, shut it, and immediately said to myself 'yeah, this one will ruin the bisexuals.' WORK NIGHTS takes us on an unapologetic romp through all the worst and best places in New York City, makes gay people sit at desks under fluorescent lighting, and points us toward all the right decisions people can make and has them turn left. This novel is like accidentally taking too much adderall, going on a first date, and then trying to recount it to your lesbian best friend the next day but seeing it all as if you were looking through a gay fish-eye lens. Unpleasant, exhilarating and i'd earnestly do it all again -- even though Jane would never call me back."
We Could Be Rats (2025)
Emily Austin
"We Could Be Rats is achingly true to life - in all its ugly, gorgeous, and stupidly funny complexities. Emily Austin has written a tender exploration of grief, sisterhood, and what it is to be a bit wobbly in a world that demands you get your footing. No one blends humor and existentialism quite like Austin - We Could Be Rats is a must read."
The Most Famous Girl in the World (2024)
Iman Hariri-Kia
"Addictive and hilarious, The Most Famous Girl in The World holds up a mirror to our own questionable obsessions, and asks us if we can ever really know who we're giving a platform to. Also, really really hot sex."
