My First Book (2024)
Honor Levy
"Fractal stories from the eschatological present, told in a strange, new, manic, and flarfy voice that I trust and endorse."
thumb
Aesthetica (2022)
Allie Rowbottom
"In her dark, moving, fascinating, and healing first novel, Allie Rowbottom compassionately and lucidly examines one of the more painful, disturbing, stranger, and newest subcultures that our misogynist dominator society has produced."
thumb
Exalted (2022)
Anna Dorn
"I highly enjoyed Exalted--a fun, funny, druggy, wise, and surprising page-turner about highs and lows and parents and relationships."
