Claire Oshetsky recommends
Queen Mab (2026)
Emily McBride
"Here is the story of a new mother, whose way of relating to her newborn seems, at first, to be more or less rational, until it begins to morph into something a little mysterious-then possibly dangerous-and ultimately terrifying. Hang on for the ride: Queen Mab is strange and bold. It takes no prisoners. This story gripped me. It enchanted me."
Normal Women (2023)
Ainslie Hogarth
"Ainslie Hogarth is the master of first sentences, and the god of surprising verbs."
Endpapers (2023)
Jennifer Savran Kelly
"Jennifer Savran Kelly's Endpapers is the most personal novel about life as a gender-nonconforming person that I've ever read. It opens a window into what it's like to live in a world where you need to disguise who you are just to get along, and yet, at its heart, it remains an abundantly hopeful story. It's a story full of messy, true life. I'm so glad I read it."
