Tell Me Who You Are (2024)
Louisa Luna
"Tell Me Who You Are is the best sort of thriller-caustic, dynamic, unsettling, and scary. Louisa Luna's novel is sharp as a blade and hard to put down."
thumb
Annie Bot (2024)
Sierra Greer
"Come for the sex doll. Stay for the heartbreak of what it means to be human. Sexy, scary, and humane -- Annie Bot is the authentic girlfriend experience."

One of the Good Guys (2024)
Araminta Hall
"One of the Good Guys is a riveting and kaleidoscopic look at women swept up in the current of toxic masculinity and the blowback when they pull themselves to safety. From art to media, Hall leaves no corner of the attack on women's safety and sanity unexplored in her adept and sharp multifaceted novel. Powerful and inspired-empowering and inspirational."
