Someone You Can Build a Nest In (2024)
John Wiswell
"I love the wonder and the darkly enchanting danger of this story. It makes me think of fairy tales, but John Wiswell understands what so many have forgotten: that true fairy tales are gruesome and magical at the same time, and he nails it here."

The Pomegranate Gate (2023)
(Mirror Realm Cycle, book 1)
Ariel Kaplan
"Wow, I loved it. It's mythic and human, breathtaking and special. I want to read everything Ariel Kaplan does. You'll break the rules and eat the fruit just so you can stay in this magical world for a little while longer."
