Monika Kim recommends
The Girl with a Thousand Faces (2026)
Sunyi Dean
"In The Girl with a Thousand Faces, the fantastical and historical come together in a skillfully woven narrative filled with vengeful ghosts, grief, and intergenerational trauma. Dean's atmospheric writing takes you deep into the shadows of the walled city, daring you to find a way out."
Japanese Gothic (2026)
Kylie Lee Baker
"Kylie Lee Baker has done it again with this tense and bloody follow-up to her incredible adult debut. Japanese Gothic is brilliantly inventive, sending a prickle down your spine as you struggle to distinguish between reality and delusion. A must-read - I couldn't turn the pages fast enough!"
A Good Person (2026)
Kirsten King
"Sharp, hilarious, and painfully relatable, Kirsten King's debut will keep you laughing as you turn each page. Lillian is the chaotic friend, the ex you still stalk, and the woman you claim to despise but still can't stop following."
