Paper Cut (2026)
Rachel Taff
"Propulsive, poignant, and laced with gorgeous prose, Paper Cut has everything I want in a thriller. It's a debut that sings with truth and sizzles with twists, forcing the reader to examine their own relationship with art and true-crime-as-entertainment. Rachel Taff is a new auto-buy author for me."

Old Money (2025)
Kelsey Miller
"Old Money by Kelsey Miller immediately hooked me with its lush, razor-sharp descriptions of a small town with big secrets. Immediately, I felt compelled by the main character whose commentary on her hometown is equal parts insightful and, at times, darkly funny. It's an unputdownable mystery packed with emotion and complicated, layered characters. It's a rare gem of a thriller with something to say beyond its compelling twists and turns, complete with an ending that leaves you speechless. I can't wait to read what Miller writes next."

She Used to Be Nice (2025)
Alexia LaFata
"Effortlessly combines unputdownable suspense, characters that feel astonishingly real, biting social commentary, and even a swoon-worthy romance. A read-in-one-sitting novel I will be thinking about for a long time to come."
