The Good Parts (2026)
Evann Normandin
"One Day meets Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind in this intimate portrayal of life-changing love and insurmountable grief. The Good Parts questions how memory defines - and redefines - us, while giving us characters to fall in love with, and a big, bold question that lingers long after the last page: if you could erase your life and start over, would you?"

Valley of the Moms (2026)
Hannah Selinger
"Unsettling, heart-pounding, and full of rich characters and deep betrayals, Valley of the Moms will have you turning pages late into the night, and questioning how much you can really know about the women in your life."

The Book of Lost Hours (2025)
Hayley Gelfuso
"A meditation on time, memory, and history, encased in a heart-pounding, cold-war spy thriller, wound tight around a sweeping story of love, family, and fate, The Book of Lost Hours performs actual magic - time itself stops as it draws you in. An undeniable debut by a glittering new talent."
